moving from Boston,MA to Dallas, TX

[Studentss 6]

hello everyone,

 

i am thinking to move from Boston, MA to Dallas TX next month while i am waiting for my N-400 interview, my case is being handled in Boston, MA, 

do you think will it affect my case if i moved and whats the procedure to notify USCIS, or should i just change my old address to the New one and that will be enough ?

 

if there is any actions required from my side please let me know 

 

Thank you in advance

Have you checked the processing times in Dallas? Seems like entire State of TX is backlogged to next century! I You are not supposed to go to back of the line on case transfers and USCIS should honor the original date of filing. Depending on how far along in your case is, I'd say delay your move to TX for a few months if possible.....  All of this is just my opinion.

 

But you answer your original question - File an AR-11 online and then call the support center (in a few days) to confirm your new address is updated in their systems and reflecting accurately on your N400 application. While you are on the phone with them, confirm that your case WILL move to TX and all further processing will be done out of TX? It may look unnecessary but id recommend confirming. Your address is suppose to be updated automatically on your pending application BUT I'd want to make sure by getting a confirmation from a support agent.  You don't want the interview letter to be sent to your MA address by a slight oversight/mistake. However, be prepared for an hour long wait time to get to an agent.

hey @Studentss did you end up updating your address? If you filed your N400 online, you can see an estimated wait time - was yours affected? I'm kind of in the same boat, wondering if it's going to cause a delay to my application even though the new office in my case, is less backlogged than the current one. Thanks!

Very wrong move. I live in Dallas and my case has been there since 2018 with no action. I would suggest you remain where you are unless you want your case to be unattended for the next 5 years. Goodluck with your decision.

hello RSC13, 

 

i filed in July 2019 N-400 and my  interview was scheduled on 16th January 2020 when i arrived to the field office in Boston, MA, they broke my heart, they cancelled my interview because my I-751 application was pending later at the end of February i got my I-751 approved and received the Greed Card some days later but i am still waiting for my N-400 rescheduling,

I applied for n400 in July 2019 and i am already USC. I applied from Dallas as well. 
 

there are many people applied before me and still waiting for interview and oath due to Covid situation.
