Shortly after i sent my I-129F I had to move rather abruptly and unexpectedly. I sent a formal letter with my change of address information to the Vermont Service Center, but it has been 1 month now and I have not received my NOA yet. The letter i sent was very formal and official looking. Is there an official Gov't form I should have used instead? I want to call them to find out if they have sent out the NOA and if maybe it got lost? I see the average time for others is about 8 days and I am way over that now. Does anyone know the number to talk to a "real" person at the Vermont Service Center? ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely

Chris

You can do it online (change of address) at the USCIS site.

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.

WARNING: Phrases in this post may sound meaner than they were intended to be. Read the Adjudicator's Field Manual from USCIS

Oh! I did not know this. Thank you for your response. I am not sure where the site is but I will do a search for it now. If you happen to know it off the top, I would love to have that info. Thanks so much!

You may want to follow up on that address change by phone. The USCIS customer service line is known for things dropping through the cracks. Better to have some documentation of the change.
