Gurus,
Here is my situation:
I-140 approved - PD: May '06
I-485 filed - July 30 '07 (India)
EAD cards - Received
APs - Received
Due to a slowdown in their business, my employer is laying me off in Dec '07. I'm still short of 1 month to complete my 180 days of I-485 filling. However, they said they will not withdraw my I-140 and, to help me, will in fact keep me on their payroll until Jan '08, with my Jan '08 salary as my severance and my official status as on "paid leave". So far, so good.
I also have a job offer, and my new employer wants me to join them in Dec '07, on EAD. My question is: Can I be officially on the payroll of two companies simultaneously on H-1B and/or EAD? If yes, do I need to inform the USCIS of my status (new employer; AC21)? My other option is to say No to the new (attractive) job offer (or to try to convince them to wait until Feb '08, which they'll likely not agree to), and and take up another job in Feb '08, on EAD / H-1B transfer, using AC21. Please advise whether I'm fine with using the first option!!

Why dont you just work for your new employer in december on voluntary basis and take the salary in Jan as a signon bonus?. This way you will have a clean record of 6 months on H1.
because its illegal to work for an employer you are not authorized to work for.

Senator Durbin apparently going after Desi employers and Desi Outsourcing companies !
03/27/2007: Continuing Confusion in Immigration Reform Legislation
It is only one week that the immigrant community was elated by the introduction of a fantastic immigration reform bill (STRIVE) by Congressman Gutierrez in the House, but on the Senate side, there is a mess that is continously developing. We reported earlier that the two bipartisan leaders of Senator McCain and Senator Kennedy reportedly rifted their partnership. Now, another Senator is about to add confusion to this mess. News report indicates that Senator Durbin of Illinois may introduce within this week a legislation to put a block on the H-1B abuse and restrict the H-1B worker petitions. This move is totally shocking considering the fact that a rosy H-1B reform was just introduced as part of the STRIVE Act of 2007.
Reportedly, Senator Durbin will propose to make it mandatory that the employers engage in the recruitment of U.S. workers prior to filing a H-1B petition and file sworn statement in the form of attestation that they failed to locate a qualified U.S. worker as part of the H-1B petition. Currently, such attestation is mandated for the so-called H-1B dependent employers only. Additionally, the proposal reportedly would mandate the DOL's annual audit of the employers hiring 100 or more employees out of which 15% constitutes H-1B employees. Once such proposal is enacted, there will be substantial changes in the flow of foreign professional workers. At this time, H-1B visas lay a stepping stone for foreign professional workers to land in this country and to apply for permanent residence.
The late news that the FY 2008 H-1B cap may reach in one day on April 2, 2008 indeed raised a concern in the country as it can be taken as a pervasive abuse of this visa petitions by some employers. Part of the current clog in the employment-based immigrant visas for professional workers is arguably associated with the abuse of these visa petitions. Please stay tuned to this website for the development of this important news.

i ave been advocating that each section must be moderated... and ppl with incomplete info must not have access to
a.) secure sectiono of the forum.
b.) volunteer moderators must have limited access..like deleting/disabling profiles or posts..
i see too many bots and worms on this posts...
act now..else RIP for ever..;)
IMO, there could be unfortunate situations for anybody which may seem to be like one will go out-of-status. Best option is go to a good attorney. It is not cheap option but certainly it is best way to get things answered professionally within a specific time period. It will also prevent your case to be wide open on forums for any agency or anti-s to target you. You will also be protected by attorney client confidentiality agreements.
I saw some questions like "I am not working on H1B though I have visa. Or things like "I am not paid on bench. Is that alright". Does it need anybody to confirm that you could be out of status? Quite naive to ask that on forum.
Best option, do not violate any law intentionally. When we take so much care by not even jay-walking, we should be super careful about the immigration laws and statuses.

How do Promotions impact one's existing GC application?
for example: one filed for the GC as a Software Engineer, 5 years down the road one switches to a different company in the same area/location using EAD (avoiding AC21 for now) and the salary is 30 % higher than that was mentioned on one's LC filing and the job title is sr software engineer (same or similar responsibilities, senior title). How would something like this impact one's GC application?
I also wonder what would happen to the GC application if one was to get another promotion and become a manager with even a higher salary (some job responsibilities stay the same and some new managerial responsibilites get added).
I am sure many of us would have faced this since clearly many of us have been waiting for many many years - I would really appreciate your input on this. Thanks!

I have got FP appt notice 7 days back. I am July 2nd filer, filed at NSC, but transferred to CSC and then back to NSC. Also, got AP and EAD approved long time back from CSC.
I had seen a similar thread for NSC->CSC->NSC filers, but can't seem to find it anymore---did anyone whose cases got transferred to CSC receive FP notice?
I am a July 2nd filer, EAD/AP approved from CSC, case transferred back to NSC back in early Sept--still waiting for FP notice for over 4 months now.
PS: I am not desperate for FP notice---and i know it's going to be several years wait--just want to get the FP done and move to an apartment with lesser rent :-)

The idea here could be to give tough time for people who do not have valid visas. If they cannot get drivers license because they are on expired visa they cannot drive.
Illegals will anyway figure out a way to drive. They may even drive without a drivers license.
We are the ones who have to bear the brunt of all these illogical rules.
Can't we do anything about this ?
I read somewhere in IV that employers can't even ask for the type of work authorization when giving a job.
How come DMVs can ask our immigration status for drivers license ?
There may be scope for some action here.

This is USCIS memo, Read Que 5 on page 3.
Memo clearly says following things not be considered in deciding same/similar job:
- Wage difference
- Geographical location
- new employer's ability to pay (that's why it is absolutely fine if you work for your own/wife's company that started yesterday)
About a year ago, I changed job on EAD with 75% higher salary. at that time i had talked to a Sr attorney at Murthy.com and he had adviced me it is not a problem. (my 485 is still pending)
Only in the case where the new wage is simply unbelievable, it would be a problem (e.g. $20k or $450k for a s/w engg, beause there's noone who gets paid that much for that job)
So it's not the difference that would matter, it would be the absolute salary that could matter.
