Ability to port priority date

Hi,

With the Oct 05 bulletin retrogression I hope I can salvage something from the whole green card process. I am in my 7th year H1b extension. My I-140 was finally filed on Aug 10, 2005. This was done based on a labor sub with priority date of Dec 2001. With the current state of the company I think I may have a job for the next 4 months max.

Q 1. Can I use the labor substitution Priority date for a future job before I get the I-140 approval.

Q .2 Are there any options for me at this stage

Thanks

Unless your I 140 is approved , you do not have any hold.

Thanks Great Guru.

If I lose my job and the I-140 is approved after that, can I still use the priority date in a future job?
