Processing Times Involved in NIW
If I may verify the processing times involved in NIW. Since it falls under EB2 category, I am assuming it may be a long time before I can get my EAD card and be able to change employers. Also, I want to confirm if there could be issues if I change employers during the process - If so, I'd prefer to change my current employer before starting with it.
You can change employers any time if you are a self-applicant and will continue to work in your stated area of national interest. But NIW priority date will take the same time as a normal EB-2 application does. See:

Heather initiated my PERM process and handled it so professionally that it felt like in Immigration University.She explained each and every step of the process throughly enough to leave discussion without any doubts what so ever.My case had some special bumps on the way to I-140,which needless to mentioned was again handled with top most priority. Mark took over the last step of filling 485 and cleared with flying colors.I have GC approved in 4 months time from submission to Card in hand after dates became current. It is worth to mention about availability of Mr Khanna on coneference calls,as and when needed without any delay when certain key decisions were needed throughout the journey of 5 years. Honestly..I had many mis-conceptions about attorneys and associates about lack of professionalism and transparency.Thanks Rajiv,Heather and Mark for proving me wrong. Mr Rajiv,Your office reputation is in good hands. Highly recommended !!
