Can I change job roles and use previous role's I140 for H1B Extension

Hi,

I am currently a software engineer with approved I140. My priority date is in 2019 and I am currently in the 4th year (one extensions done) of my H1B.

I am currently looking to switch career roles from a developer to a PM/TPM, my question is can I keep using my approved I140 for my 2nd H1B extension post 6 years of H1B?

My new employer will file for a new PERM/I140 but may not be done before my first 6 years are up.

Yes.

This is alright.
