Yeah... SO obviously the people who handle our lives at the USCIS don't read everything you send them, and don't connect the big red dots that explain people's address information. They just can't get it straight that you, the US Citizen, have moved back to the USA which is where your entire filing was SENT FROM according to the big fat RETURN ADDRESS that you put on the envelope, as well as stated on several documents including the cover letter. I'm not sure what kind of people are handling these cases which affect our lives in such a major way, but they are obviously not that bright. They sent the NOA1 along with an RFE to the address where my HUSBAND, the beneficiary, lives, instead of MY address which is in the US. And now I don't know how to change it so they don't make this stupid mistake again. Any advice, info, or ideas? I tried to do it online and it only gives the option to change the address from one US location to another, nothing outside the country which is in my opinion, idiotic considering how many people come back to the US before and after filing. Anyway, I'm gonna try calling them directly and seeing if they can fix this but other than that idk what else to do...

If smart people would stop doing stupid things, the USA might be easier to enter. Will they ever learn? Probably not!

this is really messed up, same thing we were running from, and we ended up getting approved but havent gotten the NOA2 letter yet. We assumed it was sent to the old address. We changed it one day, the next day we got approved. Now all we gotta do is sit and wait on USCIS to tell us if they got it back or not to send it to the current address :(

But did you call uscis to have the address updated? Stating it in your cover letter isnt the proper procedure. They probably went with the address in the system. The person reviewing your application would have no reason to believe that your address wasnt already updated. Its probably not part of their job.
