Is Port Of Entry (POE) important after IR1/CR1 approval?

[balkanboy 7]

Hello All,

 

This year, my wife will enter the USA with all the IR1/CR1 paperwork in the envelope (once she is approved).

I got new job offer out of state and what I do not know is:

 

Is her POE related to address in IR1/CR1 application (I-130, etc.) or not?

 

In other words, can she enter the USA at any POE or not?

 

Regards,

She can enter at any POE.

She can enter U.S at any POE. She can also travel Anywhere in the U,S and her cr-1 visa is also her temporary Green-card valid for one year or until the real one comes in the Mail which should not be that long

If you are moving then you might want to do a change of address with the USCIS or at the POE I think she can change the address if you know what it is

I see that her I-130 is still being process then she  have the NVC and the interview at the embassy process so it is still going to be a little while before her visa is approved

It is good news that she can enter at any POE. I hope that once she enters the USA, IO will update her address and give her some kind of receipt showing new address.

Regarding planning, we do not expect any significant delays in processing. Based on our timeline, the case should be closed by December 2018.

If you move before the NVC stage or before her interview she can update the address at which she intends to live, on the visa application, at the interview, OR, at the POE.

Thanks!

 

What if I move during or after NVC stage?

I covered that in my answer.  At the interview, or at the port of entry.  Do it at the earliest opportunity.
