I140 approved - extension with a new employer

[secret19]

Hi all,

I have my I-140 approved with my present employer. There are few indications that there may be some layoffs. I am in my 6th year of h1. I know I can get my visa extended for 3 years if I am here. But if I loose myjob before I get extension, can I use this approved I 140 to get 3 years extension with the new employer?

Please let me know as this is critical fOr me.

Thanks
