I have an approved I-140. Do I need to file PERM again if I change my job now?

Answer

In general, a PERM and I-140 are tied to a particular employer / job. A new job normally requires a new PERM / I-140, unless the I-485 application has been pending for 180 days and “portability” is available. (28.Nov.2016)
