I-751 stationed in korea

[Sabrina&Chuck 32]

Hello there i dont really know for sure where my question belongs, so here i am. We are currently in korea stationed, i have to file my I-751 soon NOW my question which stears up lots of confusion in my head. I just received the reminder letter of uscis to gather stuff etc.  Now my actual question:  Will i have to use out APO as mailing address as well as physical address? Or should i use as mailing my inlaws address & as physical my last address we have lived at? I honestly dont find a answer and the military help line isn't helpful at all as well as the dudes on post 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thank you for your service. If I wasn't as old as Methuselah when I moved to US, plus a couple other issues, would surely have loved to wear THE uniform!

 

Did not know USCIS sends reminders now? Neat!

 

I believe military people go a slightly different path than the rest of us, especially those stationed abroad. I remember vaguely somewhere in one of the forms about  being in uniform, and [abroad] station. So, hopefully, there is someone here who has walked that path and can answer your question.

I'm stationed in Germany and I used our APO address for mailing and our German house address for physical.   USCIS will not mail to a non US address.  Don't forget to write government or military orders on the top of the I-751 form (I wrote mine on the address label on the envelope too) and include passport photos and fingerprint cards (you can get these done on base).    I am not sure whether military people get treated any differently, though.   I filed my package in May last year and have not heard a thing apart from receiving the extension letter.  I am starting to think that the packages just get tossed in with everyone else's!!    Also, you will not receive a biometrics letter because you submit fingerprint cards so there is no way you can check the progress of your application online (the reference number for checking is normally on this letter).   I'm just waiting!   Good luck.

 Yes i have done all this already. I'm just pissed and annoyed that these people who should give proper information..legit don't 🤦‍♀️. I cant use my korean address that is way to long and won't fit into the gaps at all lol. So im struggeling with the physical address right now. Mailing no issue i just use the apo BUT the physical gives me a headache. Also did i hear the rumor of Affidavits aren't neccessary being overseas - not sure how much i gotta trust this one or not. It literallt brings me around my sleep because I'm stressing so much 😭

Wow....OK....just trying to help.

 

For what it's worth, I did not include affidavits in my package, personally I don't think they hold much weight and I felt we had a ton of rock solid evidence anyway.

 

Good luck and have a nice day.

Put your APO address. They will send mail with that address because its like a US address, but for military people.
