223 Can I change employers before my GC interview if my I-140 is approved on the grounds of a national interest waiver (NIW)?


If the basis of granting the NIW is the work done while being employed
by a specific employer, then the alien worker must intend/continue to
work for the employer at the time of the GC interview (in general).
It may be possible in some cases to change employers provided the worker's
job duties and responsibilities will be similar to those while employed
with the previous employer and therefore, it is still in the national
interest. In all other NIW cases, changing jobs before the GC interview
has no consequence at all.
