My GC was filed not by my current (H1b) employer but future employer.
Once I get my 485 approval stamping on my ppt, should I have to work for my future employer for atleast 6 months to show my genuine "intent"?

If I dont work for future employer (GC sponsorer) then INS will query at the time of my GC renewal or citizenship.

One way to escape from working for future company is have a letter from this employer stating that they are unable to offer me a job at this moment, which I'm sure they will not do.

I'm thinking of other possibility. Which is, I'll work for this company for one month for the salary lesser than what is mentioned on I-140 application (the salary specified on 140 is not affordable by this company) and SAVE the paystub to prove that I had to resign coz of lesser pay.

Will that work?
I really dont' want to work for this company as my current and future employer are sister-companies. And I'm not treated that good.
 
Sounds like fraud to me and I'm sure the USCIS will see it that way (if they look into your case).

Best to use AC-21 to switch to a new sponsor *before* the GC is approved. At the time of the GC approval, be prepared to spend 6-12 months with the sponsor.

I agree with ETA-GC. This forum here is to help you do the right things not to give advise on wrong intentions.
 
"In order to determine whether the alien truthfully represented his or her intent to remain with his or her petitioning U.S. employer after receiving the green card, the USCIS uses the standard created by Seihoon v. Levy. That is, USCIS examines the “rapid course of events” following the alien’s receipt of his or her green card. The Department of State has reduced this rule to a 30-60-90 day formula which USCIS generally follows. If an alien ends employment with the petitioning employer within 30 days of receiving his/her green card, then it is highly likely that USCIS will decide that the alien’s intent at the Consulate interview was not, as he/she stated, to remain with the petitioning employer indefinitely. After 60 days have passed, it is less likely (but still risky) that USCIS will determine that the alien lied about his/her intent at the Consulate interview. And after 90 days, it is highly unlikely that USCIS will have a problem with the alien’s change of employment."


Why do they allow people to switch employer before 485 approval but have such a rigid rule after 485 approval?

Because:
1) GC is for the future employment;
2) Alien must intend to work indefinitely for the petitioning employer after becoming PR.

What about those who switch companies using ac21?

That to give ability to employees too seek future better offers while their application still pending..but once that is done (application is approved ) then employee has to work for atleast for some time ( which varies depending upon your definition) Usually it is 6 months (from what i gather )..
