HAVE I-140 RFE HAVE OFFER FROM EMPLOYER B; WILL THERE BE ISSUES WITH TRANSFER?

 

Question:
I received an RFE for my I-140 with current employer. I got an offer with employer B. Will there be an issue if I want to switch companies with having RFE on I-140? When the new employer applies for my H1B transfer, is it going to cause an issue because of existing I-140 RFE?
Answer: 

Attorney Mrs. Pallavi Ahluwalia’s response: You will need to have your I 140 approved for 180 days before that I-140 and the priority date belongs to you. If your present employer withdraws the I-140, you don’t have an option to use it for an H-1B transfer, if you have no other I-140s already approved prior.
