Filing Perm on pending I485

[saro28]

Gurus,

Need your help. Can I ask my employer to file a new perm labor processing while I am on EAD status (pending my existing case)?
Idea is to do EB3- EB2 porting with a perm. I heard you can file Perm only if you are on H1 or other status and not on EAD (AOS Pending I485).

That is not true....

You certainly can file new PERM while on EAD. So go ahead and do EB3-EB2 porting...

Good Luck
