Change of address after visa approval, before entry to the U.S.

[kmartinkc 0]

Hello everyone,

 

I have a question in regards to whether I need to notify either the USCIS or NVC (or neither) about a change in address after the K-1 visa has already been approved. I started the visa process back in July of 2017 (NOA1), got the NOA2 in November, and my fiance had her embassy interview in South Korea in March. She has already gotten her passport back in the mail with the visa in the passport, but she isn't planning on coming for a few more months while she wraps up some things back at home.

 

We are not sure if we need to report my change in address, as I just moved to a new state and a new job. I still have my old mailing address for another few weeks, but I will be permanently moved out of that address before the end of April. I had read on here that it's not necessary and she will just need to list my (our) address on the I-94 when she enters the country, but the post I read was from 2012 and I wanted to see if there was any new information about this. I called the USCIS and explained my situation, but they just gave me a mailing address for the NVC and said if I needed to inform anyone it would be them since our visa process had already passed beyond the USCIS.

 

Any information or suggestions would be appreciated!

U.S. Citizens who do not have an application or petition pending with USCIS are only legally required to notify USCIS of a change of address if they have previously submitted a Form I-864 on behalf of someone who has become a permanent resident.  

 

You don't have a pending petition, so no obligation to update your address unless you change address after submitting the I-485
