The I-485 Supplement J is the USCIS form used to confirm that the job offer listed in your Form I‑140 is still valid, or to request job portability under INA §204(j). This supplement is required for most employment‑based adjustment‑of‑status applicants.
Our fillable PDF version lets you enter data directly on the screen, eliminates the need for printing, and ensures the correct edition of the form (current as of 01/20/25). When you finish, you can download a completed PDF ready for submission by mail or online.

Below you’ll find quick answers to the most common questions and a step‑by‑step guide to finish the form in seconds.
You must file Supplement J when you submit an I‑485 based on a pending or approved I‑140 that requires a job offer, or when you request job portability after 180 days of pending status.
Yes, if you have an I‑485 receipt number that begins with “IOE” and you are filing only the supplement (no other forms). Otherwise, you must file by mail.
Job portability allows you to change to a new, full‑time, permanent job in the same or similar occupational classification after your I‑485 has been pending for at least 180 days.
USCIS may reject the supplement and request a corrected version. Using the fillable PDF reduces errors because the app validates entries before you download.
If an attorney or accredited representative prepared the application, they must sign the form using Form G‑28. The fillable PDF allows you to upload a scanned signature image.
No separate fee is required for Supplement J. The fee is covered by the I‑485 filing fee.
USCIS only accepts the current edition (dated 01/20/25). Using an outdated version may lead to a rejection.
Processing time varies, but USCIS typically reviews Supplement J within the same timeframe as the pending I‑485. They may request additional evidence if needed.
You would need to file a new Supplement J to confirm the new job offer, provided the new role is in the same or similar occupational classification.
The official instructions are available on the USCIS website and can be downloaded alongside the PDF form.
