Hello World! Here's my little timeline:

Aug 17 2006 - Filed an I-130 Petition
Sep 01 2006 - Filed an I-129f Petition (K3 Visa)
Oct 18 2006 - I-130 Approval (NOA)
Oct 19 2006 - I-130 Approval (website)
Oct 24 2006 - I-129f sent to Californoia Service Center for processing
Nov 01 2006 - California Service Center received I-129f
Nov 02 2006 - I-130 approved thru e-mail
Nov 06 2006 - NVC received immigrant visa petition application with case number for I-130
Nov 17 2006 - I-129f approved thru e-mail
Nov 06 2006 - NVC sent something I forgot to my wife in the Philippines
Nov 21 2006 - Wife received mail from US Embassy
Dec 07 2006 - Forwarded to US Embassy (I-129f)

around January-present, didn't get to keep track of the timeline..
but as far as I remember..

Jan 2007 - Wife receives DS230 form, mailed back
Feb 2007 - Wife receives Packet 4 (Medical Forms + Interview date)
Mar 2007 - Wife did Medical Exams
Apr 04 2007 - Interview Date - approved! I-129f
Apr 09 2007 - Receives VISA!
Apr 20 2007 - Flight to US

Now my concern is.. I am not really sure what is my next step, from what I know is.
I'm supposed to file an Adjustment of Status. If so, my main question is:
Based on the Adjusment of Status' requirements, which are I-130, 129f, Affidavit of Support, G-325, etc..

They were all based on her Philippine's address. Do I file the same papers I filed from the previous application with her old address in the Philippines or REDO the application with her current address here in the US?

My other question is: When we filed our application for petition, all US address was based on my aun't home address (Because I used to live with her), but now, my wife is with me, we moved to an apartment.. I know that I can file a CHANGE of ADDRESS, but do I file it together with the Adjustment of Status, but what address do i put in the Adjustment of Status? new address or old address?

I hope you guys can help me out.

I'll be filing the Adjustment of Status this friday and just use all the copies (I-130/I-129f/AoS/G325)..

Thank you.

If you haven't already, you should check out the guide for adjusting status from a K-1 or K-3 visa. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...mp;page=k1k3aos The guide lists all the forms you'll have to file to adjust. You don't need the I-130 or I-129F forms; you only need to include a copy of the NOA2 you received for your I-130 petition.

The forms for AOS are different from the ones you filed for the I-129F and I-130, except the G-325a, which you'll have to fill out again as the information needs to be updated. Use her current address in the States.

Your wife should file a change of address notice within 10 days of moving. You can now do that online. https://egov.immigration.gov/crisgwi/go?action=coa There are circumstances detailed in the above link where the USC must also notify immigration about a change of address. Use your present address on all AOS forms.
