Hi,

I just saw on DOL website that my PBEC labor has been approved, on the other hand my old i-140 is stuck in NSC filed Sept 9th, 2006 EB3.

My question is how can i port my old PD? Should i wait for the old i-140 to be approved and then file for the new one or is there a way i can use the old i-140 later on during the 485 filing time to port the PD?

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

As far as I know priority date can ony be transfered when the I-140 is approved. Go ahead and get both I-140 approved and use the earlier date towards the new one at the time of filing of I-485.

There is a whole thread dedicated to priority date transfers after approved 140. I would suggest you read the whole thread as its very very informative.

There are many things that have to be considered before quitting and joining a new employer if you expect to port your PD from existing case to a new case of Greencard.

See this: http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=912

Closing this thread coz its redundant and the older thread offers more information and experiences.
