Nope .Remember green card is for future employment . Just remember if you have used 6 years of H1-B ,you need a pending green card application for future visas

Thanks EY1. Probably I should have provided bit more background. I have already received my I140 approval notice and we plan to move out of US for at least 5 years (so I won’t be employed by a US employer during this period). In such a case what happens to the GC application. Is it cancelled ?

if you move out , you are no longer employed in US. if it’s employment based gc , then my understanding is that it gets null and void. i could be wrong , check the sheela murthy forum. they are pretty good at it and it’s free

I would still think you can do consular processing outside of the US and maintain your priority in line? Could be still wrong...

Consulting an attorney is perfect .This is what I know .Your I140 cannot be revoked based on new rules .This means if and when you want to come back to the USA,Any employer can file for H1B for 3 years based on the I40 approval .After you come here ,You will apply for labor again,Then when you apply for I140,you will port the old labor date and probably get a green card immediately .Hope I am making sense.Typing on a plane waiting to take off 😬

Best to consult an attorney. And please update it will be helpful .

OP please keep everyone updated

Thanks guys. EY1 - I didn’t know about that clause! Will keep everyone posted as I find more.

Interesting. Even I was unaware of this option. Always thought that gc is considered abandoned if you're out of the country for 6months.

Guys, you can be out of the country for max 2 years with some x min days in the US to ensure u keep hour GC active. This is based on an attorney chat last year, pl check with the experts
