Changing address after getting green card

[jnk 0]

Hi all. First of all, if this is in the wrong forum for this, I apologize...this seemed closest to what we were looking for..

My wife received her green card a few months ago, and we're all done with the AOS process now. Last month we bought a house (!!!!) and have been working on it, fixing it up, etc. We're about to move into it, and if I understand correctly from the USCIS site, all we have to do to update the address on the green card is fill out an AR-11 online?

No way. That can't be it, it can't be that simple. Everything has been a hassle with these people...so you'll forgive me if I'm skeptical. Am I missing something, or is that really all we need to do to update the address on the green card?

Yes, the alien uses the AR-11.

If the sponsor moves (the 864 sponsor), they would have to use the I-865

yup, that's all you have to do. Once the USCIS has updated your new address, they will send you a letter that address has been changed.

I knew it. So hers (AR-11) can be done online, but I (the sponsor) have to submit a paper form (I-865)...since we both are going to move (into the same out, mind you).

Kind of crazy that they can't both be done online at the same time, but I guess that's about par for the course. Thanks for the info! Very much appreciate it.
