Everything you wanted to know about AC21 Portability


What is AC21 Portability?
AC21 portability is the ability of individuals to change employers under certain circumstances while they are in the process of adjusting status (I-485) to obtain a permanent residency in the United States (green card), as laid out under the American Competitiveness in the Twenty-First Century Act of 2000 (AC21).

Why this blog?
This blog is intended to be complimentary to the AC21 Portability website. This website was built as an attempt to create a comprehensive guide to navigate the tricky issues related to employment changes under the AC21 laws and a place to ask questions, share views, opinions on this and related topics with other people who are in same or similar situations. I am personally an individual who has faced these issues and am often annoyed by the conflicting and wrong information that is available.

What information is available on ac21portability.com?
While I am constantly updating the information, the site currently has the following
- A comprehensive FAQ? (send me more suggestions)
- A Forum to ask questions and get responses from the community
- All the USCIS Memos and field guidelines that are currently governing AC21 portability regulations.
- Links to related informational websites, government organizations, advocacy groups, law firms.

Hope you find it useful, enjoy and please feel free to send me any feedback on the website contact tab
