Effect of a career change on naturalization process and timing
I am in field A and have received my green card, still working with my sponsoring employer. I am contemplating a career change to field B that is totally unrelated to field A due to personal dissatisfaction with field A on the whole. Is there a safe time frame to do this without repercussions to my current green card and the naturalization process?
I personally think you should wait as long as you can and then change careers if that's what you want. There is no rule of thumb in these cases. Each case is unique. What is most important is that you should not have a preconceived intention. More...

My wife and I recently got our citizenship case approved. Our case was a fairly complicated case because we were out of the country for 2 years after getting our GC and had returned since then. While every other lawyer we enquired they asked us to wait for 5 years since our return, immigration.com was able to sort our case and file for it much earlier using the 4yr - 1 day rule. I was amazed at the responsiveness from the team at immigration.com. Every time I had a question, they would respond within 24 hours or less and definitely understood the laws surrounding citizenship approval. My special thanks to Mr. Chacko and Mr. Art Shifflett who handled our cases.
