Do we need to file I-485J mandatory when we change employers?

Hello,
I have filed for my I-485/AOS in August-2022 and my Priority Date is September 2014. I have my EAD and Advance Parole.

In July-2024 I have accepted an offer with new employer as part of AC21 act. I have booked my flight ticket to travel India on November 15th, 2024, and planning to return to USA using my Advance Parole.

My question is, Do I need to file for I-485J mandatory with the new employer? I mean like is it really needed to apply I-485J before I travel to India on November 15th, 2024? Is there any chance that CBP/POE officer will question anything about my I-485J filing with new employer?

Based on the current trend it will take 5+ years to get my green card. My only concern is, in this 5+ years I am not sure how many employers I may change as I don't want to file I-485J every time whenever I change employers.

Thanks,
Kumar
