I agree with @Crazy Cat. The existing lease doesn't matter. To use an example, if you bought a house and moved into it, but your apartment lease wasn't up for another 30 days, does that mean you still live at the apartment? No, it's just still in your name until the lease is up. 

 

Further, USCIS understands that the beginning of a marriage has a lot of transitionary things happening. For example, my husband and I married in May 2019, but we weren't on a lease together until August 2019. It never came up during his immigration journey and wasn't an issue (he's a citizen now).

 

Regardless, talk to your landlord about getting him added to your lease.

You just married last week.  Submit a letter to your landlord and ask to add him to the lease immediately.  USE THAT AS EVIDENCE.

Thank you for your answers! 

I live with another roommate so we want to move out to another apartment for ourselves. Hopefully we will be moved out in May or June... Can they send an RFE to ask for a joint lease or anything like that? Thank you
