Moving twice during ROC

[MrTee12 64]

My wife (permanent resident) and I are moving twice during her Removal of Conditions. We are going to be at our current location for the next 2 months before moving into ur our new home. Should I fill out the AR-11 change of address form twice or just wait until we move into our permanent location? I already contacted USPS to forward our mail from our former residence to our current temporary location.

Some government agencies do not allow mail to be forwarded and the post office will return it to sender. Are you expecting anything any time soon? Can you get mail at your final address even though you will not be moving there for another 2 months? Because you could just have the address update to your final address if you can get mail there and just check online or call to see if anything has been sent and if you need to check the mailbox. Just some ideas.

First, the USCIS will NOT allow the USPS to forward any of their mail. It will be returned to them and you will receive an e-mail notification, assuming you signed up for that, that the letter was returned--you can then call them and have them redeliver it to the address you give them on the phone. I would put a vacation hold on my mail at the old address for up to 30 days---this assumes that the two locations are not too far apart and going to pick up the mail is not too inconvient. Your post office may let you do a second vacation hold for another 30 days--I would ask them. Do a change of address to the new location when you actually have access to the mail there. Do not forget to do a change of address for the USC sponsor on the I-864 form using form I-865.

I hope it all works out for you,

Dave

I didn't know that. We shouldn't be receiving anything, my wife's biometrics is next week. We already have the NOA and the appointment letter. Thanks for the ideas. I'll consider them.
