Where to send I-129f if I'm "between" states?

Hello,

I’m not sure if this should go here or under the service center forum, but I’ll try here… I am getting ready to send off the I-129f package for my British fiancé to get a K-1 visa. However, I don’t know which service center to send it to because I’m kind of “between” states. I was living in Michigan until the past few weeks when I came to Kentucky to stay with my mom before I fly to Britain for a few months. So currently, I am residing in Kentucky and will return to Kentucky in January for a few weeks, but will then move back to Michigan. Should I file through the Vermont center since that is the one for Kentucky? I will be using my mom’s Kentucky address for the application. Will it be a problem that I will move to Michigan (which goes through the California center) next year while the K-1 process is still going? Will they have to transfer the case to the California center or keep it with the Vermont one?

Also, the I-129f asks where he will live once he moves here. When I get back from visiting him in January, I will go to Michigan and get an apartment. I don’t know the address yet, so can I just write that he will be living in an apartment in Michigan with me?

Sorry for so many question! This is so confusing with two states! Thanks for any help!

I would use your permanent address for everything and make sure someone is there to pick up your mail and forward it to you. You want to be careful here.....there is a lot of paperwork that goes back and forth and you dont' want it lost somewhere.

Apply based on the residence at the time of filing... It is best to use a valid address that you can receive mail at during the entire time... If you move post filing they will NOT transfer your case to a different service center. Doing an address change while in process has created heartburn for many... Avoid this if possible

Thanks for your responses... What about for question 14 on the I-129f (Address in the US where your fiancé intends to live.)? I don't have the address since I haven't chosen an apartment yet. Do I have to put a specific address, or can I say that he will be living with me in Michigan in an apartment that I haven't gotten yet?

Put the best available answer at the time of filing...
