Change Address?

[Tokenfreak 223]

How do I go about getting my address changed for AOS?  My wife and I have moved to a new house and need to update our address.  Should I wait until after the AOS interview which is in a couple weeks?  I can still access the old address and the mail as it is my parents place and is only one mile away.  Thanks.

By law as a non-resident, you must update your address with USCIS within 10 days.

There are rules for anyone who has signed an I864 too.

I went through USCIS to change my address and got the confirmation email.  However, 3 weeks later we received our interview letter at our old address (lucky we hadn't moved out yet).

We did not know that, which I'm not sure how they would know really if we moved yet anyways lol

 

It looks like it is simple to fill out and can be done all online so we will do it. Thanks.

Not a huge deal for us since our old address is my parents and we are only a mile from them. They will give us our mail no issues.

Well I would not be willing to take that risk and find out:

 

"Penalties for Failure to Comply

A willful failure to give written notice to the USCIS of a change of address within 10 days of moving to the new address is a misdemeanor crime. If convicted, you (or the parent or legal guardian of an alien under 14 years of age who is required to give notice) can be fined up to $200 or imprisoned up to 30 days, or both. The alien may also be subject to removal from the United States. (INA Section 266(b)). Compliance with the requirement to notify the USCIS of any address changes is also a condition of your stay in the United States. Failure to comply could also jeopardize your ability to obtain a future visa or other immigration benefit."

 

Would you?

I didn't say we wasn't going to do it. I just said I'm not sure how they would really know anyways as nothing in the house is in my wife's name and it isn't like we moved far.  We actually want to report it anyways we just needed to know how and now we know how.  So we will do it this afternoon.  Thanks for all the help.
