Applying for Green Card while Holding H-4 Status; Applying for Green Card and Permanent Residence for Another Country Simultaneously

7 years ago By Chief Editor

Question details

I was on H-4 visa from Feb 2014 till Dec 2015. I was on H-1 visa from Dec 2015 to April 2017. In April my H-1B transfer got denied. Hence I applied for change of status from here (April 15 2017) and now my H-4 application is under process. In Dec 2016 (while I was on H-1B visa), I had applied for GC in EB2 category with my employer. My employer told me that my labor has been approved. 
1: Is there a website where we can check the status of labor if it has been approved? 
2: When can I file for I-140? Is it true that it has to be filed within 180 days of labor approval? 
3: Can my GC application continue whilst being on H-4 visa? 
4. Does the GC process, at any stage, require the applicant to be on H-1 visa? 
5: I am planning to start Canada PR procedure. Will my GC application interfere with Canada PR at any point?
