I have an EAD and H1B status. What is the process to transfer my H1B to my new employer, so that I can keep my EAD, as well?

The EAD is based on the pending I-485. It stays valid even if there is a job change using an H1B. What is important is to keep the entire GC case on solid footing. Normally, a job change indicates use of AC21 GC portability. We work on many such cases at the Murthy Law Firm – we suggest notifying the USCIS of the use of AC21 and making sure there is still a lawyer taking care of the case. (24.Mar.2014)
