Changing lawyer while I-751 pending

[OldUser 6,708]

Hi everybody!

 

My lawyer, who filed I-751 on my behalf is retiring end of this year. I guess it indicates how long I-751 processing times are 😃

 

I checked G-28 form, and it had one box checked: 

"I request that USCIS send original notices on an application or petition to the business address of my attorney or accredited representative as listed in this form."

 

1. Does this mean only notices, including potential RFE and / or interview notice are sent to attorney?

2. Does this mean GC itself is sent to my address (didn't check boxes 1.b., 1.c. on G-28)?

3. What should I do if RFE / interview notice is sent and I want to use lawyer? Do I need to send new G-28?

 

I asked for a copy of my full file from the law office for the future use.

 

Are there any other things I need to consider? Do you have any recommendations?

 

Thank you

Hi @olduser,

 

1. Yes, they will only get notices

2. Yes, make sure to keep your address up to date as required by USCIS.

3. New lawyer, New G-28

 

You can send a letter withdrawing your current G-28 or your new attorney (if you hire a new one) can send it along with a new G-28 form.

 

Kind regards,
