Has anyone changed their POE during their interview? I want to use my Wisconsin address on my I-130 and I-864 forms for my POE and then during our interview change our POE to Guam.

I dont recall ever being asked what would be our port of entry? where did that happen. i gave the address where we will stay on I-130 but that isn't the airport where we will enter the US. They tell you not to buy tickets until you have your visa anyway so how could you know what airport you will cross the border on? that will depend on ticket pricing and availabiliry right? Am I missing something here?

I wasn't asked about port of entry either. It doesn't matter where you enter the USA, as long as you do. If you mean you want to change your address that you'll be living at the interview, I am not sure how that works.

@Nick1980

Have you or your spouse already entered the US with the Visa?

Your POE has no bearing on your application or interview.

I would say the great majority of applicants don't even know their POE during their interview.

I have heard that when you use a US address on your I-130 like my sister's address in Wisconsin your POE will be for the continental US.

If I fly to Guam with her visa with the POE being the continental US along with my Wisconsin address (where we intend to live) Guam immigration will ask us why are we here in Guam and not the continental US, immigration may not let us in to Guam.

So to avoid any confusion, I want to do a change of address during her interview so the POE will not be the continental US. Guam is a territory of the US but not part of the continental US.

Does this make sense?

I understand what you're saying. If they ask you why you are here in Guam, you tell them why you are there in Guam. Vacation, visit family before you go to Wisconsin or whatever your reason may be. It seems a bit more confusing if you would constantly be changing addresses imo.

I understand what your saying, I just say will vacation on Guam. So can i just live on Guam then vice going to my intend to live address in Wisconsin?
