Changing job (same company) soon after Green Card approval

[selasnow 0]

Hi,

I just got my EB-2 based Green Card approved (perm process took 1 year, I-140/485 together took 6 months).

I am interested in moving to another state to work for the same employer with a different team but a similar job description.

Given that my GC is just 3 months old, would moving now be a problem during the naturalization process 5 years from now? I hear they might question candidates who have changed their job soon after getting their GC.

Your help is most appreciated.

Thanks,

Sela

That shouldn't be a problem just make sure you file an AR-11 and keep a copy for yourself. When it's time to apply for citizenship on the N-400 application it will need the exact dates you moved.

I don't think it's gonna be a problem since you gonna stay with the same employer
