I am awaiting the results of my I-485 petition (K-1 visa). My wife and I moved home on Feb 1st.


On Feb 6th I, the beneficiary, changed my address online. I received a letter to my new address on Feb 18th to say they had updated my address. However in the letter it states:


"Please remember: by law, every person who is not a U.S. citizen and who is over the age of 14 must submit Form AR-11 AND notify this office of their change of address, within 10 days from when they move (persons in A or G nonimmigrant status are exempt from this requirement)."


I believe I an in "A nonimmigrant status" as I do have an A number. Also when I completed my change of address I received an AR-11 number starting "COA" but I'm not sure if my wife, the petitioner, also needs to submit a change of address using the AR-11 form? She thinks she might have to as she filled out the I864 form, but we're still not 100% certain and don't want to do anything that might confuse USCIS.


Please can someone advise on this, thanks, Stuart.

Thanks Nich-Nick. Because we didn't realise that the petitioner would have to change their address separately, we won't have managed to get the I865 to them within the 10 days they specify. Do you know if this will be a big problem?
