Beneficiary physical address not reliable; where to use mailing address?

[Not a user 0]

Hello all,

I have searched and found some topics on this but I'm still not clear on the answer.

I am having trouble figuring out where to list my girlfriend's mailing address. I am almost finished with the I-129f,I just need to write her address. The problem is that if I list her physical address( her parents' house) and USCIS sends her information there, she will not get it. (I have tried to send her letters and none of them were ever received). If I write a reliable mailing address ( A small house we stay when I visit) it would be technically lying, and we have no proof that she lives there. I would like to know where to out her physical and mailing address to ensure delivery of mail.

what address do i put on I-129f -> Part B -> "2. Information about your alien Fiancee".

what address goes on I-129f -> Part B -> "15. Your Fiancee's address abroad".

or is it that her mailing address will be asked later in the process??

Thank you for your replies in advance.

I am not sure about Mexico, in Colombia the U.S. Embassy send nothing to her house, everything was done with Email. When I needed to mail her anything I mailed it to the place of her employment, as a business address the mail was delivered. She would not have gotten the mail otherwise. Just use the address you have from her on all the forms. If she does not have a computer, maybe an Internet café.

wait, so you are telling me that neither, USCIS nor the Embassy ever send anything directly to the beneficiary?? or was it sent to her email address?? If this is true i can probably send this before the end of the day :D:D:D please confirm somebody!!!

Same situation with my fiance and this is what i put down, for my fiance's address abroad i put down his physical address, and i attached letter saying that this address doesnt recieve mail and i gave them the mailing address that he can recieve mail.

I listed my own address and his but he never got a single thing in the mail. It was all always sent to me.

I think it has something to do with the terrible mail system in Mexico.

I say, as long as you list yours and hers, and YOURS is a reliable address, you'll be fine.

The invitation letter that is sent when/if your case is approved in order to schedule your interview, you can just fax that to her if you get it and she doesn't, or unless your traveling to Ciudad Juarez with her, then you can just take it with. That is the only thing she really actually needs out of everything that is ever mailed out.

Hope this helps!

I see, i will probably attach that then to be on the safe side

the reason im concerned is that i know that if approved, package gets sent to embassy, which then mails her a package to prepare for the interview... if that gets sent to me too, then its not a problem as i visit often... I can only hope for the best, But for sure i will be with her for the interview i dont live that far away to miss something so important!

Thank you all! Everyone is so helpful on this site's forums

:thumbs: These are two good ideas. The USCIS doesn't send anything to the beneficiary. For the sake of the I-129F and G-325A, the beneficiary's physical address is what needs to be listed. You, the petitioner, will receive NOA1, NOA2, and the NVC letter when the case is forwarded to the consulate. I am not sure how Mexico deals out embassy letters and/or packets. This is consulate specific, but this would be the only concern with mail reaching the beneficiary.

Thank you! now the only doubt in my mind is where does the Embassy get her address from, Im hoping that the letter explaining her mailing address that was suggested above will be enough! Thank you all.

Sorry to jump on board but Im also have a similar question about the addresses.

My fiance permanent residence is at his Grandmothers house while he is physically living at another address.

In Vietnam they have a Ho Khau (household register book) and a Tam Tru (I'm not quite sure what this is. My parents tell me its a temporary registration at the address in question)...

He gets mail at either houses so should I list the permanent resident address for Part B Q2 and then his physical address for Part B Q.15?

I hope im not confusing anyone...

Thanks in advance for your help
