I'm currently in EB3. My I140 is approved and my AoS pending for the past 2.5 years. My PD is Nov.2001. If I move to a new employer and he starts my GC in perm EB2 can I use my old I140 and port my PD ? Can my current employer play spoilsport here ?

If your AOS (I-485) is pending for more than 6 months, you can use AC21 and switch to the new employer. No need for filing a new labor and going through hell once more. I dont believe your current employer can do anything at this point. Check this link:

As for porting PD to EB2, I think you can do it but only if you were qualified for EB2 as of that old priority date.

Needless to say, please consult a good lawyer and double check my statements.
