k1 return address

[jlchile 0]

Hi,

I am currently living in Chile, and will be sending in the K1 appication. My plan is to send it to my parents first, because I need some documents that they have there (in the US). Is it a problem if the forms are sent from a different address than I am currently living at? Should I even list my Chile address in the forms, being that it is not permanent (1 year more or less)?

Thanks,

Josh

I listed my address in Brazil, but only because I was back when I filed and I was paranoid that my answer to question 18 story would have seemed fishy otherwise. As you're there you might as well skip it. I don't know really.

As to the other question, presumably your parents are going to take the forms to the post office for you, so you'll be sending it from the actual post office. You should definitely do this so your package can be tracked. The address they will send your NOAs, RFEs (let's hope not) etc. will be the address you list as your current one.

Also you'll have to send a K1 petition from within the U.S.; you can't send it from Chile. That's what my congressman's immigration liason told me anyway.

Hope that's all accurate...

I'd say the best thing you can do is send the forms from a different address in the U.S., since you must be a US citizen living there to file for the K1.

As for the other question, I'm not sure.
