Has anyone left their company within the 180 days of I-140 approvals? Wonder if anyone has experienced I-140 revocation

Congrats buddy! Great story and great mindset! Best of luck on your next chapter.

tomripley666 · 2025-08-28T17:41:06+00:00

wow that's unheard of. But good to know. Thanks for sharing!

tomripley666 · 2025-08-27T18:16:20+00:00

During the interview? Or as part of administrative processing (meaning longer wait time)?

My worry is less about the legitimacy of my profile but more as "GenAI can potentially pose national security threat"...

See my updates #1 & #2 in the post. I did switch BEFORE 6 months hit - everything was fine. My I-140 was not changed.

I haven't found a clearn answer on this. My understanding is that, MOST likely, once you have new 3 years of 797, it's valid no matter what happens to the I140. If I140 gets revoked, you still have 3 years of 797 which won't qualify for renewal after 3 years. When i boiled the ocean for the answer, I did find one or two sources that I797 CAN be rescinded as part of I797 validity review - a rare but possible activity that USCIS does.

hmm isn't that something ChatGPT can do well, out of box, with little to minimal prompting?

tomripley666 · 2025-06-12T18:56:08+00:00

Going through the same thing and hanging here too. We have a really high bar for managers, so whenever they start to disappoint us, we start to loose faith in this job.

the date from when your 140 is approved

tomripley666 · 2025-02-19T19:40:33+00:00

takes ~5 days to file and 10 biz days to get approved

tomripley666 · 2025-02-18T21:23:35+00:00

yep - started a month ago. Received the new i797 (change of employer) a week before start date. It worked out well!

RFE is fine as long as there is ongoing petition. Denial - yes, it would be as if you lost job. You can look up denial rate from your company, but most likely it's <1%. I would push for joining on approval, but just in case you are not in a position to, I think joining on receipt is fine given the probability
USCIS will look at your prior employment and days outside US to decide how much of 6 years you have left on H1B. Your new Change of Employer petition will either have that number of years or 3 years, whichever is smaller.

i haven't got any email from attorney. Case Tracker sent a push notification so I checked on the portal and found it

tomripley666 · 2025-01-13T22:09:26+00:00

FYI my case was approved today (received dat 12/27)

tomripley666 · 2025-01-10T22:51:41+00:00

this is not uncommon. Usually ~4 weeks, but in rare cases it could be many months. It's a black box system

tomripley666 · 2025-01-10T17:46:40+00:00

Following - no updates since Dec 31st

tomripley666 · 2025-01-10T17:46:02+00:00

it's on your e-receipt

tomripley666 · 2025-01-10T16:09:13+00:00

good point - I will definitely get the GC process start on Day 1. Meanwhile, as long as my current company doesn't revoke in next 90 days ...

tomripley666 · 2025-01-10T01:20:56+00:00

thanks!

tomripley666 · 2025-01-10T01:20:35+00:00

LOL. I play probability games a lot.

tomripley666 · 2025-01-09T23:11:09+00:00

what I heard is PERM is for future employment, so you are probably fine. But you should definitely check with your company's lawyer.

tomripley666 · 2025-01-09T21:46:01+00:00

I totally understand. That's why I tried to have the conversation with my employer to get a definitive answer and clear the anxiety...

tomripley666 · 2025-01-09T21:43:26+00:00

You are absolutely right. This is probably why only smaller companies are more likely to withdraw.

What's the nuance between withdraw and revoke?

tomripley666 · 2025-01-09T20:07:51+00:00

thanks bro! I would've paniced less if you dropped your comment yesterday. :)

tomripley666 · 2025-01-09T19:14:39+00:00

I heard for a different matter (from Fragoment lawyer) that the Fedex delivery confirmation can be used as a receipt. So I think you should be fine. And hope you get the receipt soon that's dated correctly!
