Changing Employers With An Approved I-140 After January 17 2017
I have approved 140, Green card EAD/AP card in EB2 from company-A and passed more that 180 days. I have maintained H-1B status since last 9 years instead of using EAD/AP as the need to go India for marriage so my future wife gets H-4 easily. Just transferred my H-1B to company-B. Company-A will revoke my I-140 in March 2017 due to company policy. I have following questions to ask you.<br>
1. Shall I get H-1B extension (beyond 6 yr) in future with company-B after I-140 revoke from my previous employer?<br>
2. I have EAD/AP card from my previous employer. Is it required to start GC process like labor and I-140 application again with company-B if my previous employer revokes my I-140?
You can continue to extend your H-1 even after I-140 is revoked by the employer, IF, the revocation was sent more than 180 days after I-140 approval.
Under AC21, you do not have to start a new green card if:
1. Your I-140 is approved;
2. Your I-485 has been pending for 180 days or more;
3. You will take an employment same as or similar to your green card job; and
4. You file Supplement J.

After leaving previous employer, and got the position with new employer. I was looking for good lawyer or firm, I talked and met with many top immigration lawyer firm, no one convinced me. When I talked to Rajiv S. Khanna, I was convinced because I could feel the truth inside him, and the knowledge he has. He and his great team took my case, prepared, and filed successfully. Mathew, Mark,William, and Rajiv were really helpfull. There is true diversity in Rajiv S. Khanna law firm. They all work like a fmily. Mark was really helpfull during whole process from AC21 to getting the GC, include filing AP, and EAD. He always promptly response, alwasys keep posted, and file all documents timely. Any legal question Mathew promptly respond, and resolved. I love them. I would highly recommend Rajiv S. Khanna Law firm because of their dedication to each of the case and experties in immigration matters. Thank you!! Rasheed
