I am employed with employer A and have an i-140 approved with A (6 months since the time it has been approved). My H1B is valid till 07/2019 and this is my 2nd term of H1B. I have 4 questions:
1. If I change my job to employer B, will B have to file the labor (PERM) again before 07/2018 (365 days of H1B expiry) so that I will be eligible for H1B extension beyond 07/2019?
2. What happens if I change my job in the 6th year of H1B (after 07/2018). Will the new employer still be able to file labor under an exception so that I am still eligible for H1B extension beyond 07/2019?
3. If B has filed for H1B transfer and if I get a new offer from employer C, would it be a problem to abort the H1B transfer from B and restart the process from C? What are the complications with this?
4. After employment change, when do old employers "revoke i-140"? How should one make sure the revocation is handled appropriately to not complicate labor with the new employer?
Thanks in advance.
