Hi everyone! I'm new here and am so grateful for all of this good information. I met my fiance here in Canada while he was on a work visa. He is still here but will be moving to Houston to start a new job in January. We've been doing some research and it looks like we will be going the K1 route. I am a teacher and want to finish the school year and am thinking the k1 process will likely last into next fall if all goes smoothly. Anyway, my question is does my fiance have to wait until he moves to Houston before he files the petition? We are assuming he will need a permanent US address before we can start the process. We will be down to look at houses soon and can't wait to start the process. Thanks in advance!

He can mail it from anywhere BUT he has to have an address in the USA. He can use a relatives address. It can be any address as long as it is a reliable address where he can be sure he gets any notices, etc.

Thanks so much? Will it be a big deal or slow things things down if he changes his address in February? Thanks again to anyone who has advice! :)
