Filed concurrent 140/485 July 31 2004
140/485 pending.
might get layoff on Jan 14, 2004 because company is acquired by its competitor.
Questions:
1. If I get layoff on Jan 14, my 140/485 would have been pending five months and two weeks. I am two week short of the 180 days requirement for AC 21. Do you think I should or should not inform INS? And the reason is.....
I am thinking of not inform INS and use AC 21 to find another similar job. What are the risks?
2. If I get an offer letter from the acquiring company on 01/14/04 and is offered a similar position, should I file an amendment right away? Will this amendment change my PD from 07/29/04 to amendment filing date? How much is the amendment filing fee?
Like everybody on this forum, we are very tired of tracking of all the immigration issues and timing the progress. Hope this is the last thing we need to worry about before getting green card.
