More than one address in the US?

[mrsbetz 0]

I'm wondering if I can get away with this. On the petition, I listed my sister's residence as our intended residence in the US. That's where we will actually stay for about a month when we first move there. She's also the joint sponsor. However, I've been "domiciled" at my parents' house (out in the middle nowhere) for five years. I have all of my mail sent there, and it's the address listed on my DL and voter registration. Do I have to start moving my mail, and DL address to my sister's?

I know this is lazy, but I just don't want to do it, partly because when I renewed my DL two years ago, I was immediately summoned for jury duty (and I'd gone back home to the UK). Also, if I ask my sister to forward me some of that mail, she will forget about it, and it will drag this process out.

For your DCF process, domicile is no light matter. You can either change your address to your sister's place (including your DL and all that hazz); or for the sake of simplicity retain your parent's address. the whole process is a pain, I know.

Hi, I have been out of the US for two years but have kept a PO Box where all my mail goes. I have US bank accounts, credit cards & social security statement with this address. We are moving back into the house I lived in before I moved here, so that address is on my drivers license. My parents are going to joint sponsor my husband but we will not be living with them.

Will this be ok to prove I am domiciled in the US? Technically I have two address, one is the PO Box and the other is my old house.

Any help appreciated, thanks!
