Can petitioner have communication redirected?

[lucy884 3]

Is it possible to have mailed communication sent to a different address than the one stated on the letters and forms as where the petitioner currently lives? My fiance (the petitioner) is going to have to move to a new apartment in-between the time we send the I-129F and when we're likely to receive any communication such as NOA1. We would rather the USCIS sent any communication to his parents' address for this reason. Anyone know if this is possible, or does anyone have any suggestions?

Yes, that is why there are two address fields: physical and mailing address

Ok I must've missed that completely, now I'm worried if I missed anything else. Which do you put on the letter of intent and cover letter?

Put your physical address on the letters but on the forms that have the option of "Mailing address", you can put where you want the mail to be sent.

You don't even have to put an address on a cover letter or even do a cover letter. It's highly likely the contractors who open the mail throw that out before USCIS even sees it. It could have a title instead of letter format.

The "letter" of intent can be a statement of intent.

To whom it may concern:

I Joe Smith am free to marry and intend to marry Sue Jones......

That meets the requirement.

Thanks again for all your responses, so helpful to know the letter of intent and cover letter don't need to have an address on them. One thing though - I just looked through the I-129F form and cannot for the life of me find one part for physical address and another for mailing address. It just says Part A Information About You: Address. On the G325a it asks for addresses over the past 5 years but nothing about a separate mailing address? What am I missing?

NOA1 comes very quickly so don't file until he has the new address. Simple solution. If you were meaning NOA2 (approval) then there's time to file a change of address with USCIS after the NOA1 and before NOA2. Form AR-11 I believe.

Personally I would use the parent's address as his "permanent address."
