My employer withdrew my I-140 after it was approved, but my I-485 has been pending for several months. What does this mean for my green card case?

When an employer withdraws an approved I-140, the impact depends largely on timing. If your I-485 has been pending long enough to qualify for portability, the withdrawal may not automatically end your adjustment application. USCIS looks at whether the job offer was bona fide at filing and whether you remain eligible under portability rules. However, if portability requirements are not met, the I-485 may be denied. This situation requires careful review, and you should consult an immigration attorney immediately to assess whether your case can continue.

An employer’s withdrawal of an approved I-140 can be stressful, but it does not always mean your green card process is over. USCIS evaluates whether the petition was approved in good faith and whether you had already reached certain legal thresholds. If you have changed jobs or plan to, the new position must be similar to the original role. Acting quickly to document eligibility and maintain lawful status is essential to protecting your case.
