Labor Substitution Question

Hi all
I am thinking of starting my GC process.

One of my (ex) colleague at the company was my batchmate (hence holds same degree/similar salary/similar skillset/similar work). He had initiated his GC, but was let go in May 2001. His LC later got approved (in Aug 2002).

My company is willing to use his approved LC so that I can file 140 - is that possible given the time difference? Are there any other issues I need to take care of?

Do you have to apply for substitution officially? If so whats the time-estimate it gets done in? Or can you just send the I-140 app with the old LC?

Ps: Does it matter if he was fired instead of a lay-off?
 
You should be able to substitute based on what you have said. Discuss this with your attorney. There's more to a substitution case than just filing an I-140 and including the approved LC.
 
need help!
