What happens if you move to a different address after Biometrics?

[icar 1]

I have my biometrics appointment scheduled for next month, but I may possibly have to move to a different address later that month or perhaps not until September. I don't know specifically when the move would take place. The new address would still be in the same city. How soon after the biometrics appointment can I expect to receive the interview letter?

Would a move delay the process for receiving the interview letter?

And how do you contact USCIS to let them know that you just moved to a new address?

Does anyone know?

My N-400 biometrics appointment was in early November, but my interview notice didn't show until late February. This is totally dependant on how busy your local office is but it can take quite a while.

If the address you are moving to is in the same city, I don't think it should make too big a difference. One of the requirements for filing for naturalization is having lived in the same USCIS district for 3 months. I don't know if moving after filing but before the oath resets that clock, but it shouldn't affect you either way, since you're in the same city.

To notify USCIS of a change of address, go to USCIS.gov, click on Forms, and it's the one at the top of the list: AR-11. In there you'll find a link to do the change of address online instead of mailing in a paper form.

The biggest danger for your case is if the change of address you file on the USCIS website doesn't filter back to your local office, where your N-400 will be adjudicated. This could cause you to miss notices, which would complicate things. It might be a good idea, after you move, after you file the AR-11 online change of address (doing it online may work better/faster than the paper form), to hand deliver a copy of the paper form to your local USCIS office.

Thank you for the information. I seriously wish that the move won't happen, as it may complicate my naturalization case. But, I'm afraid that the move is inevitable.
