The sponsor originally from Chicago, and the address also during the interview was there, but now if they fly to a different state/ airport for POE like BWI or IAD airport, is this something the officer will ask them about or will cause issues ? Or since they do have family visa approved, it does not matter anymore. Thank you. Do you think we should take to an immigration lawyer about it ? let me know what you think.

Depending upon the flight availability and cost, one could have POE in Los Angeles or Boston or Chicago or anywhere if the person is ultimately going to Chicago. No big deal.

Thx, even though they decided not to go to Chicago and to stay in a totally different place than the sponsor and also put a different address for the social and the green card to be sent to ? is this still acceptable at the POE by the immigration officer ?

Usually no problem but it depends. If it's a sibling or adult sons/daughters immigrating, no problem as no one expects to live as a joint family. But if it is a spouse immigrating but says "oh i am not going to my petitioning spouse and want to live in a different place/state", that may be an issue.
