I-129F question 28a - Intended Address for Fiance?

Hello! I just joined - thanks so much for making this process easier. I searched for an answer to my question but didn't see any similar ones, so apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere.

I am the American Petitioner for a K1 Visa, filling out the I-129f form. I am temporarily residing in Europe with my fiance while applying and waiting for his visa to be processed. A lawyer I had a consult with told me that this is not a problem.

I am using a mail forwarding service for my mail, which is a physical address (not a P.O. Box). I have listed that as my mailing address on all forms and letters in the application, as it is the fastest way for mail to reach me and the forums say that I need to include a U.S. address, as USCIS won't mail abroad.

My question is regarding question 28a of the I-129f: "Address where your fiance intends to live in the US." Given that I don't have a physical address in the U.S., and am not getting a new apartment until this Visa is processed, should I:

1. Just use the mail forwarding address as the intended address for my fiance

-or-

2. Change my mailing address to a friend/family's, and list that as the answer to the friend/family address for 28a, so it matches and doesn't raise any red flags with the USCIS. (the downside being that the mail would then be delayed)

Thanks so much!

Your mailing address and the intended address can be different. Use a relative's address for this. She doesn't have to live there - it is an intended address but plans can change. This is the address where mail will be sent to her once she arrives until you update it with your new address. Are you going to be staying with relatives when you come home until you get a place of your own? If you have maintained a property there that you will be returning to, use that address.

Don't use the mail forwarding address.

JFH - Thanks so much for the quick and straightforward reply.

Sounds reasonable to me. I will follow your advice.

We put "To be determined". Wasn't an issue for us.

Interesting! Thanks, Lainie. Has anyone else done that as well?
