Hear-say question :D

I apologise if I'm not posting this in the correct forum.

A while back when we were getting ready to file I recall reading that sometimes couples come under scrutiny if the "address your fiancee intends to reside at" is the same as oh say, his parents.

This is the case for us currently because my fiance isn't planning to move out until I'm in the country. We just recently found a rental that will be ready and waiting for us whenever we get approved.

So I figure there's no need to change his address from his parents' because he's still living there while in school (he's 24, will graduate in spring) but will we have to explain anything to CIS or file for an address change later on? I'd be happy if we could leave the address the same (have his parents watch the mail) until processing is complete, then change the address after that.

Any advice?

Thankee kindly!

well I guess no one has a solid answer, so I'll wait and see what happens.

Do an advanced search in the K1 forum for +live +parent, that will give you the most recent discussions about the same thing.

This is along the same lines.

USCIS doesn't care if the USC lives with his/her parents or 47 relatives - UNLESS they are co-sponsors and are supporting a bunch of people. Otherwise, don't worry about it and when you and he relocate, file a change of address form.

I had his parent's address as the address I plan to live at and had absolutely NO problems on getting approved or at my interview. I wasn't even inquired about that.

And give it more than a few hours before you give up waiting for an answer.

Some of us sleep in late.

My understanding is that applications are to be filed in 'real time'. In other words, facts and information reported such as is the case at the time of submission. In that regard, you fiancée's address is the same as his parents. In addition to that, there is a requirement that a primary sponsor of the Affidavit of Support form (which your US citizen spouse will be upon completing the Adjustment of Status application) and the alien have responsibility to make address change notifications with USCIS within 10 days for the alien and 30 days for the sponsor. If you wish to retain your fiancée's parent's address for the duration, you'd still need to file the address change forms but noting "temporary" on the form. The form, if I am not mistaken, has an are where the permanent address would be reflected (parent's in this case). But please have a quick look at the AR-11, to confirm (it's been some time since I looked at it) to see if that would properly address your need.

heheh I wasn't meaning to be impatient, I just figured since it got a lot of views and no replies no one had much experience with the questions

Thanks for the responses though, much appreciated
