Hi,

My petition for CR-1 [i-130] is currently with USCIS at RFE response review stage.

Among the evidence which was submitted to USCIS, was a lease agreement of the place where I am currently living and it has my husband's name as a tenant. It was submitted to establish the fact of an ongoing relationship. I had moved once before and already updated the address by calling USCIS.

I need to move again somewhere closer to my work place (same state) but I don't know if it would be a good time to move now or wait till the petition is forwarded to NVC. Also, would I be required to submit the lease agreement of new place with my husband's name on it (if I move)?

Your advice will be much appreciated.<br class="Apple-interchange-newline">

There is no such requirement from USCIS to keep your husband's name as tenant even if he is not in the country. My 2cents for this idea.

It's upto you if you want to move again. It should not make any difference but I don't recommend either unless there is no other alternative.

The lease agreement copy was submitted as evidence only because we were asked by USCIS to provide something as proof of ongoing marital relationship (emails, chat logs, phone records, remittance, joint bank account, insurance policy showing beneficiary's name or petitioner's name etc). We did send emails, chat logs, phone records but since we do not have any joint account or insurance policy as most of these things would require my husband to have a SSN, all I could get was my landlord to sign for me a copy of lease agreement with my husband's name on it as a co-occupant / tenant.

As for moving part, I am having to drive for 1 hour and 20 minutes to reach the place I work and same or even more time to come back which is also not easy on gas so I was considering to move to somewhere near my work place.

Ok, topic bumped.

Situation:

I have already received a hard copy of NOA2 and now waiting for NVC to receive my case file. I was advised to call them on October 15, 2012.

I am moving to a place near my work on October 13, 2012.

Who must I inform and update my address? NVC, USCIS or both?

Also, When shall I inform NVC about change of address? After they receive my case file and issue a case number or before?
