Does the applicant retain priority date if they move to a different employer less than 180 days after i140 approval ?

Yes, they do retain priority date. The risk of moving within 180 days is ex-employer withdrawing your green card application. If that happens, you can no longer use that priority date or i140 for extensions.

This link talks about AC21 related to GC processing (I-485 specifically which is called adjustment ). This does not state that you lose your priority date if you moved within 180 days of I-140 approval

Please let me know soon. Thanks
