ETA: Actually, sorry I didn't realize how frequent a question this was recently! Apologies for being redundant and annoying :/

Hello all! Life's going well now that we have the 2 year green card. It's a nice break from paperwork for awhile.

A question I did have for the future is this:

My husband and I are moving from NJ to Seattle at the end of August. As of right now, we do not have an apartment found over there, obviously. We won't know of where we are going to be living until we get out there in August. When we first get there, we will be living with my older sisters until we find a new place to rent.

So my question is, should I notify USCIS ahead of time, before we actually move, that we will be going to Washington? Or do I just keep quiet until we are out there and completely moved out my sister's place and into our new apartment? I am assuming they won't be contacting us via mail for awhile, as we already have the 2 year card now.

Also, as I have never filled out a change of address for USCIS, what sort of documents, if any, do they need and is there a fee?

Thanks for all your help and hope all your timelines are going well these days!

Though I will say, if you have to notify USCIS within 10 days of moving into your new place, what has to be done in my situation where I am first staying with my sisters until we find a new place?

Should I just keep my staying there quiet until we find a new apartment and THEN file for the change of address? I want to be as honest as possible, but I also don't want to have to file for this twice.

If you still need the information:

~ File the AR-11.

~ File the I-865.

~ Mail both within 10 days of moving.

You can probably get away with waiting until you're settled before mailing it, but as soon as possible is good.
