I-129F question clarification

[Tater&Bugger 3]

Question: 14. Address in the United States where your fiancé(e) intends to live

Well he will be living in the barracks at Fort Drum cause he is not married, when he is married he get's housing. How do I answer that? We have no idea, we can only get a place once we're married.

"TBD" (you can expand the answer on a separate sheet explaining the situation, ie Military housing)

Ours was a little weird too. I put his parents address (where he was living during the K-1 process) on the forms, but knowing he'd be getting his own place just before I moved there. You can update the address at POE (so long as you don't get a lazy CBP like I did, who doesn't want to bother with it....). They will want to know where to mail stuff to him though, like the NOA2...

I would suggest the address in the barracks. After you get married, you can put the new address on the AOS forms, or if necessary, submit the form needed to update your address at that time (I forget right now which one that is).

Agree with Bobby+Umit

I would use an extra sheet to explain the answer and put the fort drum address he is currently going to be at so that the mail still gets to him. They will need a place to send all the papers he gets before its your turn to get papers. The USCIS is familiar with these things too.

Edit - also you can change your address online and by mailing in a form when you guys move too. Forms and stuff are on the USCIS website. We had to do that when we moved out of base housing.

I'm not sure any extra supplemental-sheets are needed. I might suggest something as simple as Bobby suggested. "Military housing - exact address to be determined"

[ashenflowers 5]

The only reason I was leery to suggest TBD with a supplemental sheet (I had it there, then thought about it and edited my original post, lol) is that like Inky and I mentioned, they will need to know where to send NOA2s and such. Like Inky said as well, they are familiar with the situation of military personnel, and probably realize the address will change after marriage.

Thanks guys! We're going to put his barrack info and a note to see supplemental form... on which it will clarify once we can get married we will receive housing (since I am not allowed to obv stay in the barracks)

USCIS isn't going to send the beneficiary anything - the address is (it seems) for informational purposes only. It is probably quite common (military or not) that the address listed on the I-129f ends up changing once the happy couple are reunited. But anywho..

Her husband is the petitioner I thought... (unless I understood that situation wrong?)... wait... I think I did. Now I'm confused.

By "Address in the United States where your fiancé(e) intends to live" you mean where YOU intend to live after moving to the US Tater, and not where your husband is living? Ok sorry... duh, it's been too long since I filled out the 129 F then, and I wasn't thinking from the right perspective... yeah that question doesn't matter as much. Ignore me.

I was in the same situation, we put TO TO BE DETERMINED.

My fiance is living on Barracks, and our I-129 was approved. We added a letter:

I-129F Supplement: Part B, Question 14, explanation of Fiancée’s United States intended residence

Dear Sir or Madam:

I, [his name], petitioner, am in the United States Marine Corps residing on military base, which is stationed in Beaufort, South Carolina. [My Name] and I intend to rent residence off base or be provided military housing upon her approved arrival to the United States.
