Hi,

I'm getting ready to file the I-485 application for my wife who came here

on a K1 visa.

The instructions regarding where to file couldn't be any more confusing.

It says if you live in so and so states, send application to X address

and for the rest, still send it to X address

I live in California.

Is the address basically same for this type of application irrespective

of the state where the applicant or petitioner lives ?

USCIS

P.O. box 805887

Chicago, IL 60680-4120

Thanks

Yeah, it is confusing, but you are right, they all go to the same address now as of April, 2005.

So yes, you will send it to that chicago address regardless of being in California :thumbs:

Thanks for your response.

For the medical exam report, did you just send the one that you must

have got done for your K1 visa interview ?

I went to a civil surgeon here in the US and took the sheet of vaccines that the one overseas gave me and got them to transfer all the info onto a I-693A.

Go here for that info (Tip#1 and Tip#2):

Thanks again. One last question : if it's not personal, could you tell the reason for your RFE.

Just to avoid any blunders like I did on the I129F application (didn't complete the G325a

biographic info forms)

They actually RFE'd me for something they already had: Proof of my co-sponsor's citizenship. I had sent in a copy of his birth certificate with his I-864 but they RFE'd me anyway, so I copied his biographical page on his passport and sent that in and had no problems.

Thanks. See they don't explicitly ask for that and then they RFE you for it.

I was planning to include proof of citizenship with the I864 anyway.
