If the company closes then obviously they don't have a job to offer so those applications should be revoked. 2. I think so. Link to comment
Attorney_15 Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 If a company filed I-140 petitions and the company is shutting down/going out of business, then the I-140 petitions they filed would normally be subject to automatic revocation. The H4 EAD may no longer be valid. Based on USCIS interpretation of the law, USCIS is not going to approve an H1B extension for 3 years beyond the 6 year limit if the beneficiary's I-140 is revoked. I would strongly recommend getting on the phone with a lawyer for some legal advice and immigration planning. Link to comment
