Hi,

Say my AOS is pending for 180+ days and I have received EAD/AP card.  I received an offer from a company with similar job but better pay.  I have accepted the job offer but would like to take a vacation of 6 months in between.  I no longer plan to be on H1B and use EAD + AC21 with the new employer, who is fine if I join 6 months later.  My travel plans are:

1.  Spend 3 months in Europe backpacking
2.  Return to the US
3.  Leave in two weeks to India and travel South Asia for 2 months
4.  Return to the US and then join the new employer

Would this be a problem at port of entries every time I return to the US?  Would they deny me entry if I say I'm on a break between two jobs.  I can carry the confirmed offer from the new employer in case that would help.

What are your thoughts?
