K1 Address Change online - AR-11

Hi there,

I'm a k1 visa holder, married, and about to apply for AOS (waiting for our certified marriage license).

We also recently moved and I'm about to change our address online using the USCIS online AR-11 form.

QUESTION 1:

There are 2 fields in the AR-11 that I'm not sure what to write:

Field: I am in the US as a: (select one)

-other

-permanent resident

-student

-visitor

Field: If "other", please specify:

I think i'm "other" but then the question is, what do I write there? K1-visa holder?

QUESTION 2:

The website says to submit the A-11 and it will update your address on your 'pending application'. However, since I haven't submitted my AOS yet, am I considered a 'pending application' based on my K-1 visa? I don't know if I'm pending or not, and whether I should supply my A number on this form, considering that I've already been approved for the K1 and have married and moved.

Any advice? Thanks guys!

Ingrid

If you're about to submit your AOS (EAD/AP) package(s) - I'd just list your new address on those forms and let the system update itself with your new address. :thumbs:

Hi Karin, I'd be thrilled to do just that (less paperwork), however it says on the UCIS site: "the law requires that all non-U.S. citizens, except for holders of A or G visas, report a change of address within 10 days of moving by completing a USCIS Form AR-11, Change of Address."

I'm wondering if they'd rap our knuckles if we don't do it, and then they notice that both our addresses changed and we didn't tell them. Then again, this may be a chicken-little moment ;)

I know what it says...but unless you're not going to file for a while - there's no harm in doing it the way I suggested.
