Filing I-751 November 2019

[LynetteMN 4]

Hi everyone, anyone starting to file their I751 for the month of November? I have a question on the address change.. Hope someone can help me out.. me and my husband used to stay with my parents in law when we filed for our I485 but we moved before I received my PR card, which was in January 2018. But we didn't change our address until recently.. Now we are ready to submit our I751 with the new address and it requires the lease agreement records which starts in 2018.. Will it be a problem?

And also we rented an apartment and the lease only has my husbands name on it.. does it matter?

Please advise..

Hi LyRoMN!  You can call USCIS to verify that your address has been changed.  I would do that before you file your I-751.

 

As far as the lease is concerned - that might be a little more problematic.  You are trying to prove that you are co-mingling your lives and your finances - and with only your husband's name on the lease - that does not support co-mingling.

 

In some states, if you are not on the lease, you are not "legally" able to inhabit the apartment.  So you might want to get a note from your landlord staying that you are allowed to live there with your husband.  I am not sure why you would have only one person on the lease - but the note will help your case.

Hi Sukie,

 

Thanks for your response!

Yeah, I was asking my husband is my name included in the lease and he said no.. then I told him to give me a copy of it, and my name is right there!! 😑

Now I'm actually worried on the dates, because we didn't change the address immediately.

I actually submitted online change of address beginning of this year and have not received any response on that.. and I just received a reminder letter at my parents in law's place so I guess it was not changed in their system.. So I submitted again online last week.. Do you think i should still call them?

I would call them to verify your new address.  Glad you are on the lease!

If you don't have pending case, you dont need to tell USCIS your changed address until filing i-751. Because you must list all your address since your condition green card begun until now

In fact calling them without having a pending case doesn’t help. They need a pending case in order to verify an address change. 
I changed my address online and the reminder letter still went to my old address. I then filed my I-751 with my new address on it and listed the old address under previous addresses and my receipt notice finally came to my new address.

Hi Californiansunset,

 

Thanks for the information!

That's really a relieve to know. What is your status for I751 now? is it still pending?

 

Thanks Lynette

No, you don't worry about that. The same as me, i moved twice, change address online but they still sending reminder filling i-751 to old address. Before filing i-751 i did not tell them address changed until filing my case. i filed Sep 2019, got 18 months extension already and still waiting for next step.

Good luck with your case.

Hi Ku Mura,

 

Noted with many thanks!

I wish you best of luck too! Have you heard anything back on your biometric screening or interview yet?

I'm a little anxious actually.. I'm travelling in January 2020.. Hopefully I will get my extension letter before that.. ** fingers crossed**

Although changing the address shouldn't affect you i751 application, you DO have to update any address change within 10 days.. Here is the quote

 

"Yes, you are supposed to tell U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) every time you move to a new address. Almost all non-U.S. citizens who are in the U.S. are required to give USCIS their new address within 10 days of moving."
