Hi everyone - I am a US petitioner and live in the UK with my British fiance beneficiary.  I filed the I-129F petition back in April 2022 and listed our UK address on the forms (and we since received the NOA1 at that address), however we've now moved (still in the UK) and I would like to change my mailing address to ensure we receive future letters from USCIS.  The online change of address form on the USCIS website doesn't seem to accommodate foreign addresses - there is no field for country and requires a US state.  I tried calling the contact number to try to update over the phone but the automated system sent me in loops then hung up when I requested to speak to a representative.  Anyone know what the best option is?  Looks like I could mail in a paper Form I-865 (Sponsors change of address), but I don't think I'm yet considered a sponsor since we haven't filed that form as our case is still with USCIS.  I could also update the mailing address to my parent's address in the US, but wasn't sure if this would look odd when our application was reviewed as our application states we both reside in the UK.  Any advice much appreciated:)

Easiest to use your US address.

 

K1 is somewhat odd in your situation but that is another discussion.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Hi Anna, I doubt that it would be an issue for you to put your parents' address, because on most forms it is asked if your physical address and mailing address differ. You residing in the UK shouldn't be a problem.
