Hi everyone, quick question - I'm the USC, currently live in Manila, doing DCF for my filipino spouse, and I'm filling out my I-864. On questions #12 and #13 would I put my Philippines address on both (because my mailing address is in Manila right now, and so is my current residence)? and then on #15 I would put USA as my country of domicile right? Thanks for the help.

No, you have to be resident abroad. You can either be domiciled in the USA, OR show intentions to re-establish domicile.

just to be doubly correct, this means that I am allowed to keep my apartment in the USA, while I live and become a resident in India for 6-9 months. That will prove we're ready to reestablish ourselves in the USA. Just a little nervous of the proof of "resident" vs. "living there" in another country.

Yes, as long as you are resident in India- ie not just on a tourist visa.
