PERM and Backlogged Case Approval

Guys, My company filed my labor under EB3 in May'04. Now I pushed them that because it is EB3 they should do EB2 under PERM.

I got PERM approval under EB2 December 1st.

Please suggest if I should have them file I140 or because my backlogged case has earlier priority date I will be better off waiting.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

A bird in hand is worth two in the bush my friend. God knows when your backlogged case will get approved. I 140 approvals are extremely fast these days. So once you have both you can have your H1B extended by 3 yrs if the need arises.
 
Thanks for your suggestion!!! Also, can you direct me to a source which describes about changing jobs after 140 while 485 is still backlogged.

Thanks again for ur response.

If you change jobs while your 485 is backlogged, you will have to refile for PERM and I 140. You can change jobs only 180 days after filinf got I 484. YOu can search for AC 21 on google and you will get the answer to your question regarding that.
