I need help with this change of address. As I am going through all my papers to send for my ROC next month, I found the NOA I-797C form from our changed of address that we filed last year when we moved to our apartment but it says " I865 Sponsor Change of Address" me and hubby used to lived with my parents Inlaw (his parents) when I first got here but we did file the change of address after we moved. Now I don't remember what form he used to change address. I am freaking out since I read some discussion about AR-11 form? Do I have to file the change of address with AR-11 form? Is it going to affect our ROC process?

Any input will be appreciated. Thank you so much for all the help vj members.

It sounds like either you or your husband filed an I-865 which is a Change of Address for Sponsor. This only changes the address for the sponsor in their system and has no effect on the permanent resident's information. The law requires most non-US Citizens to change their address with USCIS within 10 days of their move. An address change can be done on the AR-11 form or on the USCIS website. https://egov.uscis.gov/coa/displayCOAForm.do When my wife was a GC holder and when we moved she filed her Change of Address online. If you do it online, you receive a confirmation number at the end of the process and the change is done immediately in the master database. My wife updated her address online on a Saturday night, and when we called in regards to her I-751 that was pending a couple of days later the 2nd level representative said they already had the new address in the master database.

On another form, I heard of people who moved and didn't notified USCIS and then went to to file the I-751 to remove conditions with their new address on it. I believe USCIS sent them a AR-11 with a letter saying the mater database has a different address for them.

In regards to me, I was my wife's sponsor and hold off doing the I-865 (Change of Address of Sponsor). I did mine over 30 days after we moved, closer to 3 months. I put down our actual moving date on the form, and sent it by Priority Mail to the Vermont Service Center (the service center handling the request for our state). I got a receipt back a week later saying my address as the sponsor has been updated. Never heard anything from USCIS or anyone else that I was late filling my I-865.

Put in a request with our Senator to get more information. Response was mother-in-law is documentary complete and father-in-law was in document review for the military document.

Wife called NVC on the morning of Tuesday, July 1 and spoke with a supervisor regarding her dad's military document. Supervisor said she would look into it.

On December 18 CEAC updated to ISSUED for my father-in-law. My wife is happy!!!! Embassy said they gave it to DHL on December 19

Due to a DHL delay the package did not become available for pick up until December 24. USCIS Immigrant Fee paid the same day.

Dhlunar,

Thank you for your input, my hubby did the change of address and we thought that it will be for both of us but now I just found this letter saying that sponsor change of address. So then I have to change mine online? Is it going to affect my ROC? I'm worried that I didn't know about the AR-11 form that I have to file.

The online change of address doesn't ask for the effective date. If you submit it online now you will know that your address would be updated in the master database before you submit your I-751 (Removal of Conditions). Also, if you provide an email address they will email your confirmation information.

I don't think USCIS will question you why you neglected to file a change of address in a timely matter. However, if they do then be honest that you though it what you submitted updated both of your address. Remember, I waited almost 3 months before filling my I-865 and I haven't heard anything regarding the late filling.

FYI: When my wife went for her initial GC we sent in a lot of documents. The officer that interviewed even told us it was a easy and straight forward case. When we submitted her I-751, we didn't submit a ton like we did 2 years early. However, when USCIS reviews the I-751 they have the entire immigration file in front of them, including any documents that were submitted two years earlier. Vermont was backlogged at the time we submitted her I-751 that it took them nine months to approve it, but with no questions asked. The I-751 initial receipt will serve as a GC extension for one year. The receipt with the "expired" GC will be good for proof of employment and for travel authorization as a permanent resident. Also, don't forget that the I-751 needs to be filed within 90 days BEFORE the expiration of the conditional GC.

dhlunar,

Thank you for much for the advice. We had our old papers from the initial petition of I-130. Also I followed what you said to change address online thru that link you sent and I did get the confirmation number. I also put my email address but I didn't get a confirmation email. Me and hubby gathered all the papers we have to send for my ROC and hoping no backlog for Vermont since I am planning to join AF (before I turn 27) once I get my 10years GC. Also, for 90days window I used the USCIS calculator and my window will open on Aug 10 and that is Sunday, so I will be sending my it on Aug 11 Monday? Is that gonna be consider late? Do I have to attach a letter explaining why it's one day late?

AF = Armed Forces?

What is the exact date your GC expires? If August 10 starts your 90 day window, you don't want to send it to be delivered on that date, since if it could get there early. If your package arrives at the service center even one day outside of the 90 day window then it can cause problems. As long as it gets to the service center within the 90 day window before the expiration date of your GC then you are fine and don't have to explain why you filed when you did.

BTW, the latest processing timeline for Vermont for I-751 based on May 31 is 6 months. 6 months is the processing goal, so it basically means as of now Vermont is working within in the 6 month goal. In order words it could be shorter then 6 months.

The expiration of GC is on 11/08/2014 and I used the USCIS calculator they have ion their website and it says my window open on Aug. 10, 2014 and I am confused when to send them the ROC packet since August 10 is Sunday.

What it means your I-751 (ROC) package can be received by USCIS anytime BETWEEN August 10, 2014 and November 8, 2014. So if you ship it on August 11, and they receive it on August 14 then you are fine. DO NOT ship it too early that it gets there before August 10. Best bet is to ship it out on August 11.

Due to a DHL delay the package did not become available for pick up until December 24. USCIS Immigrant Fee paid the same day.

POE: JFK Terminal 1 - December 26, 2014 - They are finally here!!!

Took them to a local SSA office to get SSN on January 6, 2015. Cards received on January 10, 2015.

Green Cards received by priority mail on January 23, 2015 (four weeks after arrival).

Both went to motor vehicles and got state issued ID cards on April 11, 2015.

What it means your I-751 (ROC) package can be received by USCIS anytime BETWEEN August 10, 2014 and November 8, 2014. So if you ship it on August 11, and they receive it on August 14 then you are fine. DO NOT ship it too early that it gets there before August 10. Best bet is to ship it out on August 11.

Oh ok..thank you for your help dhlunar,

I am planning to ship the packet on Aug 11 2014 over night.
