Comment
Rajiv Khanna's office is handling my Green Card process and in general, his entire team is very responsive and provide a good support. I received an RFE on my I140 petition, with very peculiar queries. Sheena Gill took the responsibility of compiling the response for the RFE. She did a great job in following up and compiling the evidences and gave me very good suggestions. She was prompt in responding and provided necessary information to me to take the appropriate steps. It has been great to work with her. Her dedication, effort she expends are great. Great Team.
Issues in changing employers after I-140 approval
Question details
I am planning to switch from Employer A to B. Can you please help clearing some confusion i have.
Moving from Employer A to Employer B with I-140 approved.
1: If Employer A revokes I-140 and Employer B files a new petition I can retain the priority date. Does Employer A have to revoke I-140 or if he can continue it even if I am not working there?<br>
2: If Employer A doesn’t revoke the I-140 and Employer B files a new Labor and I-140 petition and retains the PD of previous I-140, would the previous I-140 be valid anymore?<br>
3: If Employer B files a brand new PERM and I-140 with new PD (2020) and Employer A I-140 is valid with the old PD. What happens if the old PD becomes current. Do I need to go back to old employer A or Employer B can file I-485 with the old I-140 PD.<br>
4: Is there a one year max limit rule on filing the I-485 once the date becomes current? What if it cannot be filed, does that void approved I-140?

Rajiv, Suman helped and encouraged me when my 140 was denied even after filing the amendment to treat it EB-3 . They were very prompt, knowledgeable and helping . I strongly recommend Mr Rajiv Khanna for any immigration related work
