Can I proceed directly to an employment-based green card without maintaining status?

    You should think of status and immigration as two separate issues. Maintaining lawful status all the way through green card approval is the safest approach. If your I-485 is ultimately denied at the final stage, and you have no valid status at that point, you could be required to leave the country immediately. We recommend maintaining your status until you actually receive your green card.
