Hello Gurus,
Your advice is greatly appreciated.
I'm EB2-I with 2010 PD & received my EAD/AP in April 2012. My H1B expired on AUG-2012.
I entered USA using AP in JUL-2012 and upon arrival we applied our H1 extension (status is still pending).My original H1B expired and I'm continuing working using the H1 extension receipt notice.
I'm planning to join a new employer in NOVEMBER using my EAD (availing AC21 feature - different employer & similar job) .
If my H1 extension approval comes in DECEMBER (i.e. after I join the new job using my EAD), will my status revert back to H1?
Can I still work for the new employer using my EAD & ignore this new H1b approval?
Please clarify.
Thanks a ton !!!
