I got my green card through my employer 9 months ago. I now have a lucrative job offer from another company. Will my GC be at risk if I move to a new employer now?

Answer

A person who receives an employer-sponsored “green card” is generally advised to remain with the sponsoring employer for at least six months to avoid possible allegations of misrepresentation during the naturalization process. Generally, changing after this time period would be relatively safe. (25.Jun.2018)
