I-140 Revoked By Last Employer
I stayed with my last employer more than 6 months after I-140 was approved. My employer revoked I-140 but I can retain my priority date.
Now, I am filing I-140 again with a new employer. Will I have stay with my current employer more than 6 months after I-140 is approved to retain my (old) priority date? If I change job after I-140 is approved, my employer can't revoke it. True? Is there any period I need to be employed with the current employer after I-140 is approved?
Under the law effective from 17 January 2017, an employee will retain their priority date once an I-140 is properly approved, even if a day later the employer asks for a revocation. There is no requirement that the employee be employed with that employer for a certain period of time.

Its been about a year since I have interacted with the Law office of Rajiv Khanna and I have found them to be very knowledgeable and experienced with the whole immigration and Green Card process. They have been quick to answer any questions and efficient throughout the course of the application. Thanks to the team for making the ordeal of the entire process a lot more simplified!
