immignoob1980 Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 My 140 was recently approved and my firm's lawyers have filed for the 3 year 797 extension (current 797 expires in March 2012). I was wondering if it's possible for me to switch companies now once I receive my 797 extension (the 3 year extension would only kick in beginning April 2012)? If so, from what i've heard, I would have to start the green card process all over again from scratch, which i'm fine with. Assuming I get my new 140 with the new company approved, do I get another 3 year extension? I'm unsure as to how this works. Please advise. Thanks! Link to comment

nipukumar Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 I am not sure about the date when your 3 years extension kicks in. It maybe from date of approval or from April 2012. You can avail 3 years extension as long as you have i140 approved and your PD is not current. Job change is fine. It wont impact 3 years extension. Also, you can retain the old PD with new green card process. Just you would need the I140 approval copy from old company. Link to comment
