  • Can i hold a Green Card and a H1B Visa at the same time ?

    Hi,

    I have been on H1B since 2011 and have approved i140. I got married to US citizen and got green card based upon this marriage a few months ago.
    I'm looking to change my job and I would like to change my job on H1B. That is I want to join the new company as H1B candidate.

    Can I do this ? That is hold a Green Card and a H1B Visa at the same time. Reason I want do this is I have difficulty in my marriage and staying on H1B is safer for me.

    Thanks

    No. You are a US permanent resident and can no longer have any nonimmigrant status.

    Difficulties in your marriage do not prevent you from remaining in permanent resident status.

    This is my personal opinion and is not to be construed as legal advice.
