This is from the USCIS website:

If you are a alien in the United States, you must report any change of address to USCIS within 10 days of moving. 

it also says as soon as 😂

"We strongly encourage you to submit your change of address through a USCIS online account as soon as you move."

the sooner the better, but obviously within the 10 days lol

This is tricky. GC can be sent to old address despite you changing address.

I have access to the new address when we have our interview. I could do it before, but I'm worried it would cause the interview to be cancelled. I heard it happens.

Don't update address until you move. This would be wrong. On the other hand, if you actually sleep in the new place and all you have is some furniture or things at the old place, then you can update it today. Downside of doing it prior to interview is address on your IDs won't match the new place. Also you may get additional questions about it.

 

I was moving around the time I-751 got approved and GC produced. Nothing worked... Neither USPS hold mail, nor USPS Mail Forwarding, forget about USPS mail intercept. Not even talking to mail people at USPS location prior to this.

GC got delivered to old address as I was loading the truck on the day of move. I was super lucky.

 

My advice is to talk to building management etc so you can access mail at the old place or they keep letter if it comes there.

We have the keys on the 1st, interview on the 10th. We have the keys to our old unit until the 12th.  I am pretty close with our mailman, but with my luck he'd probably be off duty when it comes.. 
So the earliest I could update it would be the 1st, 9 days before the interview

If you sleep at the new address starting 1st, then yes, you can update on 1st. 

But again, as I mentioned, you won't have much paperwork from that place for the interview.

 

Good luck and keep us posted!

AAAAA the drama.. We'd have the new lease, probably some contracts like the renters insurance, internet bill etc.. Why did they have to time my interview around then LMAO.

It'll be fine. I'm sure of it..

Maybe mention it to officer when they ask about your current address, which they will. You'd have to find the right words to say if you decide to inform them at that point. This is not a legal advice.

[Edward and Jaycel 2,008]

@Rachel n Tyler I would do this, I would tell the officer that you got keys to the new place on the 1st and you have until the 12th to move out of the old place and you are in the middle of getting everything out of the old place and into the new place but you didn't want to change the address officially until you were completely out of the old place since the interview was coming in the middle of it all and ask them what you should do. Since your interview will still be within the 10 day grace period, you won't be violating any procedures and putting it into the officer's hands will allow them to handle it the way they think best. I would bet that the officer will just offer to update the address for you in their system. If not you can update it yourself online after the interview.

Also I highly recommend about a week before your interview, you upload any new marital evidence to your I-485 documents section under "Unsolicited Evidence". Our officer thanked us twice during the interview for doing that as it allowed her to take a look at our case and all the evidence beforehand and made her job easier (i.e.; she didn't have to scan in all of our new evidence). Here's a review of how our interview went (I know you'll obviously have a different field office but it will at least give you some outline of how they go ):
