I am from India. I had applied for PERM EB2 labor while my old EB3 labor was still pending. My EB3 labor, with priority date of MAR 2005, was approved before 2007VB fiasco and I was able to apply for 485/EAD/AP.

In August 2007, my PERM labor was approved too; I had the chance to file a new I140 and request interfiling with my existing 485 application. But I decided not to file a new I140 and let the approved EB2 labor expire.

Now, I am having second thoughts. Is there any way I can use the old expired labor (> 180 days after approval). I know I cannot use it directly to file I140, but are there any ancillary benefits of having an approved, albeit expired labor? I am thinking of either checking with my employer if they can file a new EB2 PERM labor if I qualify, or switching my jobs.
