I want to know if it is possible to change jobs during I-140 processing in the following situation. My priority date is September 2004 (EB 3 category). Labor is approved and I-140 is in process. My regular 6 year H1-B expires in
August 2007 (but I already have an extra year I-797 till August 2008 based on the extension applied for this GC application)
If I change jobs by March 15 and immediately start GC processing at the new job:
What will be the H1-B expiration date in this case - August 2007 or August 2008 ?
Will I be eligible to stay on after August 2007 on a yearly H1-B extension on the basis of a pending GC application ?
Let me know if more info is needed.
Thank you
