H1B with New Employer - ( I 140 approved and completed 6 years)

[tech2012]

Hi

My I-140 is approved recently and already completed 6 years. I have some query :

1. Can I change Employer ?
2. If yes , then what happen my Priority dates ? ( I'm not sure current employer will revoke the GC process or continue with that )
3. If I will get 1 or 2 years H1B petition file with New employer then within this time periods Do I need to file PERM Labor and I-140 both before next H1B Extension ?

Please let me know

Appreciate

Thanks

1. Can I change Employer ?
>>> Yes. You can do that if you have an active I-94.

2. If yes , then what happen my Priority dates ? ( I'm not sure current employer will revoke the GC process or continue with that )
>>> Priority date can be ported if you have a copy of the approved I-140.

3. If I will get 1 or 2 years H1B petition file with New employer then within this time periods Do I need to file PERM Labor and I-140 both before next H1B Extension ?
>>> Yes. You need an approved I-140 with the new employer to file further extensions. Not advisable to switch job unless you get a 2-3 year extension on the transfer.
