Losing Job while I-485 has been applied

[venkatdabri]

Hello,
I am in this situation where I might lose my job soon not sure when. My I-485 was accepted on Nov 21st 2020. As per rule I have to stay with the company for 180 days(May 20th 2021) in order to port my I-485 without having to apply for labor all over again. If I do get fired before May 20th, 2021 is there anyway I apply for portability. I have heard sometimes companies don't file retraction immediately or that USCIS doesn't process the retraction immediately letting you port. via your new company?

I would suggest talk to your lawyer. Or at the very least, if your job is under threat, talk to your employer how the next 2 months are so critical for you, & if they can hold it off till end of May.
