do we need to stay with the employer after getting green cards.

At some point, you have to say f...u to this whole GC, citizenship etc etc. If you still have distance to go before you reach there, please keep on going....

You are not free to do what you want. The GC is meant for a future job, and technically that point in future arrives when you get your GC, and if you don't honor that potential problems could occur during citizenship, and btw GC can be revoked anytime in the first five years..I saw a lot of information in a FAQ in a forum "life after green card". You should check it out..I think most lawyers recommend sticking to your job for 6 months after GC, of course anybody can do what they want. This is just a conservative approach.

Hi Guys,
What do you think is the safe period to stay.

6 months is safe.
I know a few folks stayed 1 year after GC to be totally safe.

... just in case, I should wait 6 months. Then I was free like an American Eagle to fly in the skies ..

Aren't American bald eagles an endangered species?

But thank you all for weighing in.

Based on what ground... if I am buying a LEGAL hooker in Neveda will deny my citizenship application? (provided that I am a SINGLE). So, can I say foul language and will I be considered has bad moral character? So, Can I gramble?

Not trying to be a jerk in here... but looks like the immigrant community is fightened by the US immigrations and worries about it will be kicked out at anytime.

For citizenship applications you are scrutinized more strictly than anything, and they don't care about fairness. You can be denied for legal prostitution, having smoked marijuana legally in another country (if they know about it), or being arrested without being convicted (that is why they want arrest records even if charges were dropped), or for convictions that were expunged.
