Both are completely different things. Link to comment
Attorney_22 Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 Generally, you may only remain in the U.S. if you are in valid status or are in a period of authorized stay. It may be possible to appeal the I-140 denial, however it will depend on the reasons for denial and if you have a valid argument. Therefore it is advisable to speak directly to a qualified U.S. immigration attorney experienced in such matters. The Murthy Law Firm has a very well-regarded Special Projects Department with extensive experience who would be able to provide you with excellent assistance. Please feel free to call our office to schedule a consultation with one of our attorneys. Link to comment
vikis Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 I have a situation where my previous employer filed my i140 on EB2 two days after the expiration(after 6 months) of the labor PERM approval, because of that my i140 got rejected and the reason for rejection was due to the fact it was filed with expired Labor. I'm now redoing my GC with the current employer, my question is can I carry forward my Priority Date ( Nov 22, 2010, the date of filing of my Labor by my previous emp) to my new GC? Pls advise! Thanks in advance! --VK Link to comment
JoeF Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 You can not reuse the PD. A PD can only be reused if there is an approved I-140. Link to comment
