Getting Promotions Or Changing Job Description While Green Card Is Pending
Question details
Present Status: I-140 is approved and priority date Jan 2016. I completed my MS in USA. My company attorney/HR is telling me I can't get promotion till I get my green card approved. As per them this is Immigration law or this is part of green card process. Can you please confirm if there is immigration law which tells that if your green card is pending then Job title can't be changed and promotion can't be awarded?
Video Transcript
If we are speaking of a green card filed through PERM it is complicated because any substantial change in the job requires you to refile the green card unless you have the intention to go back to the old job when you get the green card.

I appreciate Mr. Rajiv Khanna & his team for their honest & sincere effort to handle my GC case. Before I came to know about Mr. Khanna I worked with several other immigration lawyers. Converting my status from F1 to H1 to GC was a long & complicated process & sometimes was quite frustrating. When Mr. Khanna & his team started handling my case, immediately I realized that he could handle my situation better than any other lawyers I met before. Sound knowledge, great team, honesty & excellent customer support are the strong points of his team. It was always easy to communicate & work with his team. I will always strongly recommend his name to everyone who needs help about immigration.
