I have a question to immigration gurus here. My laywer says he has filed for I-140 on my behalf. But, he didn't give me any proof. How do I make sure if he really applied I-140? What should I ask him? Any suggestions? Thanks! crishna, H1B issued by universities are worthless when you want to join other profit organizations. That's why it's usually good idea to get green card from that university when you're working there. You must apply for the new H1B under quota if you want to change the employer.
