Topic: Please help! Laid off before I485 approved
What happens if there are layoffs/reduction in force (RIF) and I am impacted?
= You can look out for a job on your own. I guess AC21 is not needed as your employer will not stop you from moving out. My I485 has been pending over 180 days. Do USCIS frown on a gap of employment? Do they not like you being RIFed at all? Are they sympathetic while you try and get a similar role?
= I dont think this should matter. Usual problem of a jump within 180 days is during citizenship. However, if you made the move due to RIF, it is not treated as an issue or problem.
THIS IS MY UNDERSTANDING... I CAN BE WRONG ... PLEASE RECHECK WITH A LEGAL PERSON ON THIS. I AM NOT 100% SURE. |
Topic: Finger Printing Location?
The address on my Receipt is given as my office address, which is different from my residence.
If I get a FP notice,
1. Will it come to my residence or office address?
2. Will I need to travel to my office address for FP? Are there any other options... reschedule, change in address ... ? |

Topic: AC21 EB1C
Hi Indian2007/ThomasB,
I m in a very similar position.
-I-140 approved May 07 under Eb1c.
-485,EAD & AP applied on 15th August 07.
I dont forsee a lay-off, but due to other circumstances I might want to look for opportunities outside my current org ASAP. I dont have answers to your questions, rather adding to it:
- If EAD not approved within 90 days... can we apply for Interim ... and then use AC21?
- The 180 day portability law, talks about option to move into a similar role/title after the 180 days locking period? So do we need to have an approved EAD to do so?
Anyone with answers please? |

CONGRATULATIONS
My 485 has been filed on 16th August, under Eb1C. Wonder how long it would take with the current situation. Hope for the best. |
Topic: Eb1c + 180-day portability law questions:
Can you shift jobs:
1. In case you receive your Green Card before 180 days from filing?
2. After EAD, but before 180 days from filing? |
