Hello, my marriage-based green card interview got scheduled so I am asking these questions..

I am currently moving a lot because of job issues, which means I do not have a stable mailing address for USCIS. 

Here are the questions..

 

(1) Can you guys tell me if USCIS sends green card to your mailing address or physical address? 

     If they send it to mailing, I am going to change it to my parents' house or friend's house so that I won't miss it.

 

(2) Have you guys used usps holding mail service and it works for USCIS? If so, I might use it.

 

(3) Is it okay to have mailing address and physical address in different cities? For example, Mailing address in New York but Physical address in Texas or something. 

 

 

Thank you will be waiting for your response!!!

Go with this option so it doesn't get accidentally stolen or go missing for some reason. And less complicated to deal with...

 

The other options I have no experience and can't answer them. Sorry!

Yes they will send your card to your mailing address. It could be anywhere within state. Its better if you update your mailing address with usps

They are sending my husband’s green card and soc sec cards to the wrong address because that’s all they had listed at hus entry on Friday evening. I had updated my address when I moved two years ago! New ds260 and everything. Do you have any idea who to contact to avoid this before it happens? I don’t kniw which entity to even call. Thanks!
