I140 still valid after getting / surrendering green card?


Recommended Posts

I have been in the US for a long time(~17 years) and have I140 approved in EB2 from 2 prior employers. My wife also has an I140 approved from her current employer in EB3, however, our priority dates have not been current . I am current on EB2  with my current employer now and it looks like I'll be eligible for EAD / AP etc.

We are, however, planning to relocate to India by the end of this year before my daughter turns 5 (plan got pushed out by a year due to COVID). My question is , if we apply for GC but return back to India , I do realise the GC process stops . But if I do decide to come back, can I leverage my previous I140 to recapture this date? Or once you enter the AOS/AP/EAD, you can't do that?
