Can greencard applicant waiting for i485 quit job or start own business?
Thanks.
Answer:
If you're working, you must be here on a working visa of some sort. To obtain that visa, however, you must have a sponsorship from an American-based company.
If you go into business for yourself, you change your status and (probably) void the working visa conditions. If this were to occur, you're most likely to get your I-485 petition thrown out (regardless of where it is in the approval process). You're also likely to be asked to leave the country ... you no longer have a valid visa, and are therefore an 'illegal alien'.
You could try to do all the preliminary leg-work (set up funding, etc) for your prospective business while still working at your existing job ... but the bank, etc may ask for papers proving you are eligible for the money (i.e. a citizen) - without them, you'd be out of luck.
sure did you know know that,, that what this conuntry is about.. big business.
