question for the gurus !!!

Hi guys,
I read somewhere that ur GC can be revoked if u change ur employer immediately after being issued the GC (employment based GC). Is it true? What would be a good waiting period after GC to change jobs.

I read somewhere on Murthy's site that BCIS may question "intent" at the time of citizenship application, if you leave the sponsoring employer immly after GC.

I tried to find the details on her site but this morning I am really pressed for time.

rd 1/17
nd 1/31

I read some posts which say 3 to 6 months is a good time to stay with current employer after GC approved.

But with AC21, I am not sure. AC21 allows people to change jobs before GC is approved. I would say 3 to 6 months would be safe.

thanx guys for ur input.i'll check on murthys site.
BTW i'm not interested in citizenship so will it still matter

It forms enough basis to prove that you made immigration fraud.
GC could be revoked.

shantanu bhaisaab,

any idea what time frame could be considered reasonable by BCIS for leaving your sponsoring employer?


YOU CAN IGNORE THE ABOVE. ACCORDING TO MURTHY, 1 YEAR IS REASONABLE.

I changed employers 3 weeks before RFE

anyone care to shed light on what that might do?

thanks

Sorry guys - I had read few posts earlier according to which 3 to 6 months may be enough time. But, based on the link posted on one of the other threads today, looks like atleast 6months (maybe a year) should be treated as a safe time.

but what r the implications if one is fired ?
