Thanks

Question: for those who were let go recently, can someone pls explain the advantage of having I-140 filed by Deloitte 6 months ago.
Given the GC wait times for Indians is so high - I am not looking at Green card as a realistic possibility.
So what real advantage does the I-140 provide?
Can we now file for extensions with new employers without having to redo the I-140/PERM process with new employer?
What else?

You can join any employer.

To all the veteran H1B holders: my friends OPT expires in February.
