I am with my current Employer since 2008. My GC is filled in EB2 with Aug-2010 Priority Date. Only I-140 is approved so far.<br>
1) Can my employer file me under EB-3 concurrently without affecting my existing EB-2 filling?<br>
2) If yes then what is the procedure for that? Do I have to do my labor and I-140 once again?

I will be short and point out my experence
in
Have an I140 approved with a priority date of Oct 2009 under the EB3 category and worked for the same employer for over 10 years from 2007 - 2017
I filed for my AOS in December 2017 using Cross Changeability since my spouse is born in Malaysia
I left my employer after 2 weeks of filing the AOS for a better opportunity in terms of Compensation
I used my approved I140 to get three years of H1b extension. My new job and position are in the same category and my new employer is ready to provide Supplement J if needed
It has been almost two months since the filing and have received all the receipt notices and have also done the fingerprinting and haven't received any RFE Yet. Do you foresee any issues arising in near future and jeopardizing the application because I left my employer before 180 days of AOS pendency?

Feb 22, 2018, Discussion Topics - 7th year H-1B extension - H-1B approval without I-94
I needed to make an infopass appointment to get my passport stamped in the Dallas, TX Office. After trying to make an appointment for 2 weeks, it occurred to me to research and see if others were experiencing the same thing.
Hi everyone I have finally been granted asylum. I filed my case in November of 2014. A lot of people said it will be difficult for me to be granted because I have been travelling in and out of the US for a long time.
Mr. Khanna, I would like to thank you and your staff for all of your direction, guidance and support throughout my green card journey. It was a bumpy ride with lots of barriers but the outcome was fruitful. I somehow forgot to share my feedback on the bestest services I received from your legal team and I sincerely apologize for that. Your firm really did an amazingly thorough and professional job and Words cannot give any appreciation justice. Thanks much to Bharathi, she was superbly positive, efficient and professional. I could not have wished for a better person to have dealt with it and the service I have received from you has been excellent. You have kept me well informed and up to date with everything. I would always refer your firm if the need ever arises for any legal assistance. Once again my heartfelt thanks and appreciation for you and everyone else worked on my case.
Best Regards
Anup
