Ranting on H1B transfer process: LCA submitted for approval on January 6th. Still haven’t heard anything. My start date is 2/22/2021 but I really can’t wait to submit my notice...oh the waiting game...

Need advice. Currently at $142k base. 3 years and 1 month left before I max out of H1b. Just got my PWD issued through current employer though their immediate reaction is subtly letting me know they’re not in a hurry to start recruitment. Got an offer today for $160k base. Similar role, both are good teams, etc. Do I politely decline and see my GC process through or accept and get more money? Feel like current employer will drag their feet as long as they can for retention purposes.
