AC21 ruling and rules after GC stamping

From MurthyChat:

Chat User : Hi, Ms. Murthy! I got GC under EB3 by CP. My sponsor with whom I signed an agreement is taking a long to start me on the job! Can I find my own job?

Attorney Murthy : Generally, the safe period of time that a person should work with the sponsoring employer is about 1 year after getting the GC. The only exception is under AC21 if a person used the AOS process. Without AC21 regulations, it is not clear that you would be safe in retaining your GC if you changed jobs, especially if the INS finds out about the job change when you file for naturalization, or otherwise if the employer complains to the INS.
