Changed Employer before GC approval without filing AC21

Recommended Posts

I am planning to apply for Citizenship and filing for N400, but i changed my employer 

Filed for I140 and I485 during the 2007 fiasco throug Company A- 
I140 and 485 filed -8/8/2007;
I140 approved- 7/16/2009;
Changed job to Company B - 12/28/2009(without AC21, but similar job responsibilities) and still with the same company B for last 7 years;
Green Card approved-7/10/2011
Will there be an issue with my N400 application, as it has a question on your current employer and the start date is before the GC approval, please advise? the job profile is very similar and the state of labor filing is same as well.

You were required to work for the employer who filed the I-140. A change in employers required filing AC21. You didn't, so you were required to work for the original employer when the GC got approved.

This could cause lots of problems for you, including fraud accusations. You need to see a good immigration lawyer.

Thank you JoeF and Pontevecchio, but looks like the two most experienced members that i was expecting a reply from have very contrasting views on this issue, which is obviously very scary. 

I had read earlier, that AC21 was not mandatory nor it has any form to file so i can report if i recieve an RFE, but the GC got approved without any RFE.
