前一个雇主交的I-140很早以前已批准,两年前换到现雇主,I-140和I-485 concurrent filing同时上交,I-485排期已到,8月份将到达pending 180天,现在EAD和AP已到手。最近公司裁掉了一批人,有点人心惶惶。请问我这种情况,如果180天内被裁,会有什么影响?
-Normally, USCIS will send you RFE for your employment status. So, you need to have a new job or job offer in the same/similar field. Because you are laid off, not you resign for job change, probably USCIS will not give you trouble even if you do not work for the current employer who sponsored your I-140 within 180 days after I-485 filing.
If USCIS does not send you RFE for employment status, your I-485 pretty safe. But you still need to find a new job as soon as possible, in case.
EAD可以直接申请别的工作吗?
-Yes.
需不需要马上回国?
-No.
有没有必要请求现雇主等到180天满后再裁?
-That will be better, but if they insist to lay off you, it does not matter that much (see above), and you just explain it to USCIS if necessary (enclose the layoff letter). The critical thing is to find a new job in the same/similar field as soon as possible.
十分感谢您的帮助!
