FAQ: Not reporting change of address to the USCIS - Naturalization || Chances of getting an F-1 Visa when B-1 Visa was rejected earlier 214(b) denial
This is regarding my husband. My Husband's GC is filed through Employer A. His LC & 140 got approved. We did not file 485. He recently got a good job opportunity and transfered his visa to Employer B. We have priority date of Nov 2007 in EB2. But Employer A may revoke the 140 as my husband is no longer an employee of company A. We do have the copy of approved 140 with us. Employer B is wiling to start his GC process this year. Can we port the old 140's priority date even though the original 140 is revoked? Will it be lost if approved 140 is revoked?
The old employer can withdraw I-140, but the applicant will still be able to retain the Priority Date. Please review the latest information on this topic: Priority Date Can Be Carried Forward Even if Old I-140 is Revoked (Unless Fraud or Misrepresentation) –July 7, 2012

I have utilized the services of Attorney Rajiv Khanna many times over the last 10 years and have 100% of the time been satisfied with the prompt, expert, and swift handling of the H1B and Green Card applications. Most recently I took over a very complicated immigration situation when I took over as the Chief Operating Officer for CCOM Medical Group. I was faced with an employee that was out of status and her whole immigration process had been mishandled by numerous attorney’s over several years. Rajiv’s staff quickly put together a plan, researched all the potential obstacles we could potentially run into, and executed parallel applications for an H1B visa and green card. The end result was obtaining an approved H1B visa for my employee and H-4 for her son along with an approved I-140 so that as her priority date comes up later this year she can get her green card. We are all very happy and appreciative of the fine work Rajiv and his staff did for our employee and CCOM Medical Group. In my ten year history in working with Rajiv he has never, ever, let me down and he and his staff are always conscious of ensuring I have the appropriate expected outcome in mind and am fully aware of any downside to a situation before it happens. I like to make informed decisions and Rajiv allows me to do that. Anyone reading my comments is more than welcome to contact me at (918) 683-0753.
