Employer change on Approved I-140

[andy_P]

Hi Folks,

I currently working for a company A in US and my I-140 is approved. Although I have not received my EAD yet.

Can I switch my job and join Company B ? Do they (company B )  need to file for I-140 again immediately ?

Company A has not shared the approved I-140 document with me, it is shared only need per basis, will that be a problem switching the job?

I am not sure how the job switch works in case of approved I-140, please help.

Regards,

Andy

Can I switch my job and join Company B ? - Yes. Old employer cna revoke I140 before 180 days after that they cannot revoke old I140.

Do they (company B )  need to file for I-140 again immediately ? No immediately but at one of point of time they need to for you to get EAD and GC through them. You cna port priority date from old to new.

Company A has not shared the approved I-140 document with me, - This normal. Employers do not share original copy they onlyshare copy of it on need basis like visa stamping.

will that be a problem switching the job? -- Nope you can submit copy of I140.
