After
your Form I-140 immigrant visa application approval, the
USCIS Form I-485 (Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status)
is used to apply to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration
Services (USCIS) to adjust your status to U.S. permanent resident.
=>....
|
|
|
The U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) limits the number of immigrant
visas for Form I-485 applicants that can be issued each year. As a result, the U.S. Department of State regulates the
immigrant visa numbers to ensure that the annual statutory immigrant visa limit is not exceeded.
=>....
|
|
|
When
you send Form I-140 immigrant
visa application to USCIS, you can also send
your Form I-485 application for adjustment of status
at the
same time as a concurrent filing of Form I-485 with Form I-140, if
your immigration priority date is current. =>

|
An alien applicant who has filed
a USCIS Form I-485 application for adjustment of status may apply for an
Employment Authorization Document (EAD)
during the period that the Form
I-485 application is pending, including any period when an administrative appeal or judicial review is
in processing and pending. =>
....
|
|
|
Because the Form I-485 application
for adjustment of status is based on the alien’s intention to continue working for the employer after receiving
U.S. permanent residence, the alien applicant has traditionally been required to continue
to work for the U.S. employer who filed the underlying Form I-140
Green Card application. =>
