I feel like I have asked this before, but probably a year ago and I just want to make sure I do what I need to here.

 

I am currently doing a K1 with my fiance. I have two kids from a former marriage, who have an american dad. Their american passports and snn are on the way in the mail after an appointment a few weeks ago.

 

When I finish all the visa stuff and I am ready to move, what do I need to do for them? I mean they are kids, and I have a custody agreement from their dad stating I can move with them. But once we get to the US (or at the POE idk) I assume I have to notify someone? Is it as simple as just a change of address for them?

Appreciate any help. 😃

Notify who?  As USCs,  there is no issue with them  entering and living here .. Your custody agreement and authorization to travel with them would be needed to be able to take them out of your home country

Well, when you move inside the country you still have to change your address, and I dont know how you do that for people who have never lived in that country before, even if they are citizens. So that is why I am asking. I also need to sign them up for school and stuff, not sure how to do any of this.

Assume you mean notify people in Norway of the change of address? So you’ll just notify them all one by one - best to make a list and work your way through it i.e. friends/family, bank, pensions, etc. Plus closing accounts like insurance, utilities, etc. 

 

For school you contact the school district for where you’ll be living, they’ll help you out. 

 

Good luck.

Schools will require your ID and proof as address within the school district. A telephone  call to the admin office of the local school district and you will be able to  know exactly what they need.  Banks etc will require your a iD and proof is residency and address. 
 

Your USC fiance will surely be able to provide info on these US processes 

 

Unlike some other countries, there is no federal state or local “ registration” of where you live or move to. The closest thing to that would be your drivers licence,  which is issued by your state and requires you to update address details when you move within the state , and obtain a new state licence if you move to another state.
