H1b holder has already passed 6 years and is renewing h1b because I140 has been approved. The current renewal was granted with the employer A and is due to expire in 1.5 more years.
If the person changes job to employer B, the green card process has to be restarted, but the priority date is preserved.
What about the h1b extension? Suppose the new employer can not get labor+I140 approved within the next 1.5 years, what is the status of this employee with the new employer after the current h1b ( which expires in 1.5 years) expires?
Let me know if this remains a gray area or is well defined within provisions of AC21.
