Beneficiary change of address - TO A NEW COUNTRY!

[Tim & Rocelle 0]

Hello!

We have already submitted our I-129F form and it has been received, processed and sent to the Vermont Service Center. I have received my NOA1 and we're waiting on the NOA2. However, since the NOA1, my fiance is going to be moving from Dubai to Canada. I tried calling USCIS national office to ask if we need to notify the Vermont office of the address change and they told me not to do anything until our I-129F is approved. However, that does not seem right to me.

We're trying to avoid any time-costly errors or problems (since you all know how difficult the waiting time already is for this!!) so I thought I'd turn to my friends at VJ and ask your advice. I've read other forum posts that say they have sent a letter to their local service center with the receipt number, petitioner and beneficiary's names along with the notice of change of address and consulate.

Has anyone else run into this issue before? Should I wait until the NOA2 is received or would you recommend sending the letter to my service center?

Thanks for your help!

You'll need to wait until NOA2, then get in touch with NVC to ask them to direct the petition to the USEM in Canada rather than UAE.

Is it really true after filling beneficiary's address in the K-1 forms and when the NOA2 arrives one can contact NVC that the beneficiary has moved to another address and country entirely and it will be granted without causing any problem to the visa process?

I am following the responses to this post as my fiance (the beneficiary) moved last week to a new address/house in the same city but 4 blocks away.

It sounds like I need to wait until our NOA2 is issued then call and inform of the change of address.
