Potential address change for spouse beneficiary while I-130 is being processed

[mglev 2]

Hi All, I had a question regarding how to proceed with our application process while we are currently waiting on the I-130 approval.  We should hopefully get the approval in the next couple months or so, but my wife may be needing to move back in with her family by the end of the year.  Will this present a problem if she is no longer at the address we listed in the initial application?  I am worried about potential correspondence that may get sent to her former address if she does end up moving, and how to proceed with documents in the future that may ask for her address and the potential discrepancy between the two.  Do we let them know in advance or wait until the initial approval and notify about the change on future documentation only?  Thanks for any information on this!

If the address changes during the I-130 approval process, do nothing until the NVC stage. At that stage provide the new address.  She will give a new and updated address history. No problem.  No worries.
