Kris Alya Posted July 31, 2021 Report Share Posted July 31, 2021 Hi, I am currently on H1b with I 140 approved (more than 180 days ago) working in IT Team. My Company (A) is being acquired by another Company (B). The IT department is being acquired by a third-party Consulting Company (C) which will service Company A (A will be client of C). Company C says they will follow Successor of Interest and try to port I-140 first. And then I can start working for the C. 1. Will my H1b Status still be valid after porting (or) H1 Amendment also is required? 2. After porting the I-140 will the 180 days rule still apply (can they revoke it?) Do I Have option to change job using the ported I-140 immediately? 3. If Successor of Interest porting fails, will the I140 from company A still be valid? Quote Link to comment

Can I use the same I-140(amendment denied) to get 3 years extension or it can be useful only in get the PD ported? Quote Link to comment
