Change of Address for Beneficiery?

[LvivLovers 39]

I'm the USC and my wife who currently lives in Ukraine has had to move, so her address on the I-129F and I-130 is no longer correct. Who do I need to contact (I'm assuming at the moment USCIS) and how can I contact them to give them her new info? I'm thinking it will be difficult over the phone because her native language is Ukrainian and not English, so her address has non-Roman letters. Is there an email address that can be used to update this info? Thanks!

Don't worry about it until the NVC sends it to the embassy. At that point you can contact the embassy with the correct address.

BTW my Belarusian fiance' received her Packet 3 & 4 from the Warsaw Embassy with Latin letters not Cryllic.

LvivLovers,

I am in the same position, how did it turn out for you? Did it delay our Packet 3 and 4?

Um. I actually didn't do anything yet. But I'm going to try giving USCIS customer no-service a call and see if I can get it changed. I'll post back here after I try that. If you find out anything else let me know!

This might happen to me too. My wife (in Colombia) may have to move towards the end of march. Please keep us updated!

Please wait, if you call, you will most likely delay your processes. If they have a question, they will send an RFE, however, I don't think they will.

DanNNina, I'm fairly sure it won't generate an RFE and they won't have any questions, but my concern is that they don't have her correct address any more and I don't want any mailings to her to go into some black hole. Are you sure that this will delay my process? Right now, as far as I know they haven't even gotten to my petitions, but both the I-130 and I-129F should be at the CSC. I even thought that maybe if I call to have this changed, they might look at my case early since the address needs to be changed. Anyone have any experience with changing the beneficiery's address and know what effect it has on the processing for the case?

Wait until the petition is approved, NVC case number assigned and then you can try and correct it at the NVC level (though I-129Fs don't stay there long) and at the embassy level. You'd have to provide the embassy with the NVC case number though. I am the beneficiary and I changed my address at the embassy/consulate level without any problems.

Ok! Thanks for the info! I'll try to do that then.

All,

My wife just got back from the US Consulate and they immediately changed her address. Additionally, they also printed a copy of the Packet 3 w/ an opening letter stating her name and her official application number etc. So, if/when you reach that stage, just go or e-mail the embassy of the address change.

Thanks,

You go around in circles on this one. My husband called the Call Centre and they said to complete the AR-11. The AR-11 is for when the beneficiary is currently living in the US and moves to another US address. I phoned the Consulate here in Vancouver and was told to email them. I emailed them and was told that they do not have access to my case yet so my husband needs to advise USCIS.

I responded to the email stating that I guess we will have to wait until we know it has been sent to the Vancouver Consulate and then let them know.
