Ok, so I came across some discussions here today regarding the I-865 (sponsor change of address) and I realized I never did one, actually I never realized I had to....and it's been a long, long time. We did do the online change of address submission for my spouse (the beneficiary) and I made the mistake of assuming that the government would just magically link us together that I was included in that deal (yeah, yeah...I know).  

 

So now, we are getting close to 2 and 1/2 years in and I'm not certain what I should do at this point. Any recommendations?

OK. Where do we stand on me including a letter confessing to being an idiot?

Just download the form, fill it in, and mail it.  Do not explain anything.  You are neither the first nor the last to submit a late I-865.

even though it's been 2 1/2 years?

Yes.  Don't bring unwanted attention to your error.   I have never seen anyone get into trouble even after years.
