Question related to Perm - My firm is in the process of filling a GC for me. They are 75% done in terms of timeline to get an I-140. Now I decided to move to another state, and they are telling me that they will restart the GC process. Does it make sense for me to tell them that I will move back to my current location once my priority date gets current? Or should I let them refile (which might take another 2 years to process)?

Further context: I already rent out a tiny condo I have by using a property manager, and if I kept this townhouse I'd turn management over to them as well.
