:help: I have a DILEMA Please HELP ME

[Milva 0]

I have the I-485 pending and it is in California at this time. My issue is that it appears that I am VERY close to hopefully getting approved (based on the touches).... My issue is that I just sold my home and I am concerned that if I change the address now we will be delayed.

QUESTION:

IF I change the address with the post office to the new address will any correspondence from INS automatically be sent back?

Please help me.....

We were in the same situation with the same worry. We moved in April and expected the interview notice at any time. We finally got it a few weeks ago and were approved yesterday.

The good news is the address change for my wife seemed to work right away. You get a letter acknowledging the receipt of your address change and also the I-865 at your new address so that confirms they have it right.

The bad news is that even after following all the procedures and even making an Infopass appointment to confirm the address had been changed they still sent my stepson's interview notice to the old address and the post office did not forward it. I would take this to mean your fears about the government screwing up (both DHS and USPS) are not totally unfounded.

Fortunately, I had an understanding with the new resident at our old address to keep any letters from DHS and call me. I'd recommend doing the same thing if you can.

We had the same deal and did not change our address until after we had the cards safely in hand. I am sure the new owner wont mind keeping up with you mail for a short time.
