Job change after 485 approval

Hi,

My PERM and I-140 was approved when I was working for employer A. Since my priority date was not current at that time I could not file for 485 AOS when I was with employer A. Then I changed my job to employer B. B again filed for PERM and after PERM approval they filed I-140, and 485 AOS (using same priority date). Couple of days ago I checked on USCIS site and it says my 485 is approved and notice has been mailed. It also says that I should receive the green card in 60 days. I will complete 1 year with employer B next month.

My questions are:

* Am I free to change jobs at this time? or do I have to work with employer B for certain amount of time after 485 approval?
* Is there a possibility of any other complications in the future because of this move?
