layoff when i140 approved less than six months ago - h1b visa

[A4PP]

I currently have -

• I have H1b Visa status with extension approved till October 2025 (Including Seventh year extension)
• My i-140 was approved less than six months ago

I’m trying to understand What Are my options if I get laid off right now.Assume that I find a new job within 60 days -

• Will I be able to use my i140 approval from old employer for indefinite h1b visa extensions with new employer, If the old employer revokes the i140 immediately?
• Will I be able to use my i140 approval from old employer for indefinite h1b visa extensions with new employer, If the old employer Does not revoke the i140?
• Do employers usually revoke i140 Immediately after layoffs?

Thank you for help.

If you get laid off but find a new job within the grace period, here are your options:
- If your old employer revokes the I-140: You generally cannot use it for future H-1B extensions with a new employer, but you might be able to use it for a transfer if done within the grace period.
- If the old employer doesn't revoke the I-140: You can use it for H-1B extensions with a new employer.
- Revocation of I-140: Some employers revoke it quickly after layoffs, while others do not. It depends on their policies.
