Petitioner address change

[SabrinaFrance 8]

Hi,

Our K1 is somewhere over the Atlantic between NVC and the Paris Embassy.

My fiancé (the American petitioner) has changed address on October 1st. Therefore he is completing the I134 paperwork with his new address, but our K1 file had his old address.

1st: is it going to be a problem?

2nd: should he change his address on USCIS website? As our file has been sent to the embassy is it still considered pending at USCIS? (There are 2 different procedures whether your case is pending or not)

Thanks in advance.

No - shouldn't be a problem - people move (especially when getting ready for a life change), it happens.

2nd: should he change his address on USCIS website? As our file has been sent to the embassy is it still considered pending at USCIS? (There are 2 different procedures whether your case is pending or not)

Might not be a bad idea - if the online system will let him, why not?

IMO - for a K-1 - the Petitioner's address change after 'nvc sent' is not so useful - ONLY BECAUSE there is NOTHING to be sent to the PETITIONER once the casefile has left NVC.

Once the visa stamp is in the beneficiary's passport, and ya gets into the USA - USCIS ain't gonna mail you anything - you have to MAIL IN THE AOS package - so that 'mail in' is the first time a 'change of address' will be useful / noted. FWIW, the USC spouse has to list his former addresses in the AOS package ANYWAY, so if no address change is done TODAY, then the addresses will get tracked LATER in the AOS packet.

Good Luck on Interview Day !

Thanks for your response.

So it should be no problem that the documents from the 1st package had his old address, and the I-134 form and the other documents for the embassy has his new address. Correct?!

Thanks
