AC21 law bsically protects your I-140 if you change your employer. Your employer cannot withdraw I-140 filed in behalf of you 180 days passes, basically I-140 becomes yours.
485 applicants can change jobs even prior to AC21 law, only thing is your former employer can withdraw I-140 filed on behalf of you. INS have no problems as long as there is a employer who offers a job after your GC approval.

hi OCT2000 , a clarification
If AC21 is to protect 140.. can u please share ur thoughts on what will happen in this scenario?
140 filed through company A.
a person joins company b when 140 is pending
140 approved through company A
company A willing to support 485 with letters and so the person files for 485...company A gives a future employment letter stating the position is open and the person may join after GC approval
According to AC21 law, can the person join a similar job description as company A after GC? ( joins company C whose job description matches with the labor and 140 filing of company A)
please throw ur thoughts.
thanx

We can reasonably assume there is no impact even employer withdraw i-140 after 180 days. However, Since INS still have not issue final regulation, we can not be 100% sure this is true.
