us_resi Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 This question has been discussed earlier in this forum, but I wanted to revisit this based on present circumstances and immigration scenario. I am a US permanent resident from Oct 2016 and I am working in the same company which sponsored my green card. Can I change my job (not a layoff scenario) without affecting the requirements for naturalization, for example, good moral character ? Is this still a subjective case - OR - has anyone changed jobs right before applying for US Citizenship through N-400 ? Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 Generally the consensus is staying for at least 6 months. But if you got a career advancement elsewhere or more money elsewhere, you are certainly able to leave. One caveat is to discuss specifics with a lawyer to cover your back as it where. Remember very few workers stay for ever nowadays. Link to comment
JoeF Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 No problem at all given that you have worked for the company that sponsored your GC for over 2 years after getting the GC. Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 Sorry. I thought the Op was working from 2018 for the company. Since it is 2016, no problem at all . Link to comment
