Changing Employer After Receiving Employment Based Green Card
Question details
Couple of months back I received Employment Based Green Card (H1b to GC) and my dependents received Green Card too (H4 to GC). I had the intention to work for the Employer who sponsored me for the Green Card forever during applying for the Green Card and during the Green Card Interview too. However after working for couple of months for the employer now I am feeling that I should be changing the Employer to a different one near to my home due to the following compelling reasons: I am a Heart Patient and facing Health Issues due to the Travel (4 hours flight travel) that I am making every week to work in the Employer's Client Location for work.
And if I continue to perform my job this way I will affect my health. All the efforts I made to request a work near home did not materialize.
I am planning to search for a new job near my home and if I get it I am planning to put in a Resignation to the present Employer stating the facts about my Health Problems and join the new one.
My Question:
1. Will I face any issues now or in near future during I submit my Citizenship Application due to my employer change just after 2 months of getting the Green Card? If so what are the steps I should take to avoid it?
2. I am planning to save my Payslips / W2 of the Present Green Card Employer and my Heart Health records. Is there a Minimum duration that USCIS expects a Green Card Holder to work for the Green Card Employer?

I want to Thank Rajiv ji and his team for the invaluable services they provide. While maneuvering the arduous process of immigration, most immigrants need an attorney who understands their concerns and has no qualms in going above and beyond the business relationship. Mr. Khanna and his team do just that..... Go above and beyond. I had burnt my fingers with a law firm in NY, and I had become cynical about the whole process and about the abject indifference some law firms have towards their clients. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have come in contact with Rajiv ji. The best part of Mr. Rajiv khanna's Team is that it comprises of like minded, highly professional, and empathetic individuals. Rena, Anna, Sumanji, And Jagbir took care of my case as if it were one of their own. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for all their sincere efforts and formidable support. Thier professionalism coupled with empathetic attitude is a perfect antidote to the challenges one has to endure during the immigration process. I strongly recommend Mr. Rajiv Khanna and his stellar team. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. Sincerely, RM.
