I just realized that I didn't put my PO Box on my K1 application. I just put my physical address but the post office doesn't deliver to my house just to our PO Box! What do i do? When and how do i notify USCIS? I still haven't received my NOA1 yet. I can't really follow the steps for "changing my address" as i'm not really changing it.

USCIS don't accept PO box addresses, it has to be a physical address so what you sent will be ok. But if it does not get to your house address then it will be returned more than likely to USCIS and stay there or they may email you that they don't have an address for you. Not sure what will happen there. Someone here will have more advice on this one.

Would it be possible to go to your local post office and set up a mail-forward from your physical address to your P.O. Box? It may cost some money to set up and maintain, but it may be the solution to your issue.

Well the thing is we live in a town and All mail gets taken directly to the Post Office, where all of our mail boxes are. If an envelope says 415 Smith Street the Post Office sends the letter back because it Has to say P.O. Box 222 (or whatever our box # is). I called our local post office and the lady said she sends all mail back if the Box # is not labelled. I can't believe this..blaah lol!!! Do they even send the benefiarcy anything in the mail? or just to our fiance in the US?

The beneficiary gets sent packet 3 (forms to fill out and return and a checklist), and an appointment letter (packet 4) I believe. You might want to check the Canada sub-forum and see what information is in the two packets and if you need to get them physically or if you can just fill out the forms and send them in and get your appointment date through DOS.
