More than 180 days after my I-485 had been filed, I started interviewing for a new position. My I-485 was finally approved, however, before the company made a final job offer. Is it possible to port my green card to this new employer, now?

Answer

AC21 portability is no longer an option after your green card has been approved. You typically are required to report to your sponsoring employer for work in this situation. (12.Feb.2025)
