Hello folks,

I'm in a sticky situation here. At the start of my petition for my husband, my mother in the US offered us a place to stay until we found jobs, etc. Now she has changed her mind and is not offering this anymore.

My address on the petition is her address. My question is can we keep this address throughout the whole visa process and do we absolutely need a letter of accommedation from her? Can we skip this step, or do we need some form of proof for living arrangements?

How do we find a place without looking at it or having jobs/income??

Thanks

PS, Does the domicile requirements on the affidavit of support need to include living arrangements?

They don't care where you live (with mom, a friend, hotel, own home, renting...), but they need a mailing address. So next time you send in paperwork, or when coming through the airport, just update the address.

However- they do care about financial arrangements. If their of you have jobs, who will be the financial sponsor for the I-864?

A friend of my family's is the joint sponsor and I am the sponsor. My family's friend is a dentist. The financial part of the form is fine, just the living arrangment is complicated now. You can't really get an apartment the day you arrive. Plus I have 3 kids.

Ok wonderful, so I do not need any proof of living arrangments, other domicile requirements are fine?

Thank you for your response.

No you should be fine. They may ask at interview where you two will be staying, just to make sure there are concrete plans (and because a husband and wife would discuss such a thing), but the where won't matter.
