What if we're homeless?

Right now, our only home is an apartment in Shanghai. A kind relative has let us use his US address for purposes of filing our petition, and that has worked up to now (we are at the consulate interview stage).

What problems will we encounter from the bureaucracy once we are in the U.S. if we don't have a permanent address?

We would prefer to live in a long-stay hotel for a month at least before settling on a place to live. Is that type of address permissible? Or can we continue to use my relative's mailing address in dealing with the USCIS?

Absolutely fine and happens quite often. You just need to make sure to update your address as you move.

No need to own your own home... Many couples rent apartments or townhomes and never have an issue.

As long as not having an address doesn't mean you have money to support yourselves then you are fine.
