Hello all- This is the first time I have posted, although I have read quite a bit on the various forums.

I met my girlfriend in late 2012, at the time I was separated (married 20+ years), and had been told to find "someone who could be nice..." In March of 2013, my then wife asked for a chance to reconcile, so I ended it with my girlfriend, and although hurt, she understood. In May of 2014 we separated again, and finalized the divorce in December 2014. I re-friended my girlfriend on FaceBook after that, but we had minimal communication. Then, in March 2015, my son got married, and my girlfriend congratulated me, and we started talking again. In April I got laid off from a very well paying job, I had a lot of vacation accrued, and got a decent severance, so I went to see my girlfriend. Now I would like to apply for a K-1 visa to bring her from Cameroon to the US.

The complication I face is that I recently signed on for a good job again, but initially I will work in Texas, but my permanent work location after 1-3 months of training will be in California. How should I handle this? I will likely visit California in the next month or two, but it may be even longer before I get a home there. Should I rent a PO box, and use that to start the process? Or maybe even rent a "mailboxes etc." type box, online, and get started now? We have known each other almost three years now, have met in person multiple times, have many photos together in different venues, no criminal records on either of us, and a well above average income, so I don't anticipate any particular problems, but the address changing over the short term (next 90 days) complicates things a bit.

It does not sound like TX will be a permanent address. Will you be changing your driver's license to TX? If not, I would use an address in my state of permanent residence.

Sorry, that is a good question, I wasn't clear- I live in Texas now, will move to Houston for several months of training, and then will go to California. California will become my new permanent residence.
