Best time for moving?

[Henry&Rebecca 39]

Hello helpful community of VJ ,

I had a simple question to you guys today: What do you think would be the best time for me (the petitioner) to move to a new place and not cause any disruption in my I129F or K-1 process? I've only recently (~1 months ago) received my NoA1, and the idea is that I'd like to move to a new apartment before my fiancee moves to live with me. It's nothing urgent and I can do it whenever I want, and so the flexibility is why I wonder what would be the best time to do it, given the procedures I'd have to go through as a result (and their impact on the overall processing time of the case/visa).

In essence, which of these would be best:

A) Move before I get my NoA2?

B) Wait until I get my NoA2 and move after I get it while my fiancee is taking care of things on her end (paperwork, interview, med. exam, etc...)?

C) Don't move until fiancee gets visa and travels to the US?

All 3 options are viable ones for me, and neither I nor my fiancee would mind either one... But Ideally I'd like to have already settled in a new place before she came, to make the transition easier on her.

Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I'm waiting till she gets here to move so that she can participate in the selection.

I was of the same thought initially, but friends and family seem to think it less stressful on my fiance if it was all done before she got here.

I must admit, they do have a point.

I would wait until she's here just so the mail and the letters going back and forth don't get messed up. Moving is stressful, but it would also be nice for the two of you to find a place that you both like and to be able to get her opinion on everything. You could go out looking at places together and once you get it, you would have her input on where to put the furniture and how to decorate. I was living in my 1 bedroom apartment that I had been in for 2 years when I brought my wife over. We got married a week after she got here and continued living in my apartment until moving in May (6 months after her arrival). You could let her get settled at your place, focus on the wedding, and give it a few months before moving out. You have lots of options!

I moved into my new place 4 months after i filed my petition. i wanted to get everything ready before my husband enters the US.. i sent him pictures of apartments, floor plans and safe central locations.. we both agreed with the apartment i'm residing. we talked as if he were right beside me, that's what made it fasinating. i want my husband to feel at home, relax after hours of flights and dealing with security clearance at multiple airports. i've been sending him pic of our apartment or when i plan to purchase anything big.. i'm waiting for him to get here so we can pick out new set of couches and possibly our own 60 inch tv.

it's perfectly safe, once you do a change of address online, call uscis in a few days to confirm the change of address. Then your done. Waaah-Laaah

thought i'd reply...
