Hi Sir,

I have a petition which was approved in 2014 by one of my companies. But I did not go for stamping. And soon after some months I left the organization. The time in the petition which was from Oct-2014- June-2015 got lapsed. I would like to know if the petition can still be utilized. In the USCIS website it still shows as approved when I put the Case number.
Can you guide me in this what best I can do with this petition.
 
Since your petition was approved in 2014 and you never went for stamping, it's considered unused. However, the good news is that you may still be eligible for cap-exempt H-1B filing using this petition, even though it's from several years ago. A new employer can file a cap-exempt petition referencing the old approval. I’d recommend consulting an immigration attorney to review your specific case and help you move forward correctly.
