Hi - My priority date is 07/2012. My I140 was approved in EB2 in 2019. My lawyer applied for EB3 140 along with AOS (485) and I-765 in Nov 2020. Currently, my EB3 I140 is approved. And the Priority date is about to be current in July 2021. I don't have an EAD card yet. My question is.. can I initiate a job change while my 485 and I-765(EAD) applications still in progress. I heard that there is a way to expedite the EAD application. How can I do that so that I can switch jobs?

Hi,
Yes. You can change your employment while I-485 is pending.. But, Please make sure, Adjustment of status petition is pending for more than 180 days. You will also need to confirm, new job must be same or similar occupational classification that filed previously. EAD petition will not affect, if you meet these requirements.
Thanks
