Question: When applying for new jobs, do I need to ask for a new H-1B, or can I work using my current EAD and change employer?
Answer: You can go ahead and join with the EAD but keep the future plan of reactivating your H-1B.
Question: Like H-1B after termination, is there a 60-day rule? Does that rule apply to me also, even though I have an EAD?
Law offices of Rajiv S. Khanna has provided great service in getting my employment based I- 1485 approved. I contacted Rajiv's office little more than a year ago for phone consulation in changing employer using AC-21. Upon his advice, i continued my AC21 process. Rajiv's advice is always very neutral, practicle and straigh forward. Later on, my case was sent to local office for interview. He helped me prepare documents and answers for the interview process. He even offered his personal cell phone number in case I need to contact him during the interview. My case was approved in almost a month after the interview. My main contact in Rajiv's office was Mark Riddick. He was extermely patient, supportive and very quick in responding my numerous questions. He helped me prepare every single detail for the interview. Without that type of help and support, the interview experience would have been very difficult. Matthew, Heather, Lesli, Art also helped me a lot. Overall, I had a very professional and satisfactory experience working with Rajiv Khanna and his team. Thank you very much.
