Hello all, I am relatively new to the forums, you can read my introduction here

So I have two questions:

1. I plan on submitting my I-129F at the beginning of October. I also planning on moving in February of next year (2008). I live in the same city as some relatives, parents and grandparents. Should I put down my current address, or should I put down another in order to minimize risk of any any correspondence being sent to the wrong place? Or does it matter enough that I have to put down my current place of residence?

2. The proof I will be offering for a meeting in the last two years will be 5-6 pictures of us together in Berlin, Germany and then copies of stamps in my passport with the dates shown of me entering Germany as well as a receipt sent to me for the tickets I bought to go. Of course along with this I will provide a written account, but do you all think this will be enough?

Thanks for any advice you all can offer. If anyone reads my story and the questions there and has advice to give, I am all ears.

Are you going to use a relative's address then?

We only submitted about six pictures with the petition but Claudeth took two 3-ring binder full of pictures to the interview :P

I believe at least one of the forms (I129F) asks for the address where the two of you plan to reside, doesn't it? Still being in the middle of the process myself I don't know how sticky the government is on this point. Often, the government is all about dotting the t's and crossing the i's.

Well, I believe there is a form that I can use to change our residence address after things are approved. My plan was to use my parent's address since they will not be moving anytime soon as a place to mail all communication as well as our "official" place of residence. Then after the visa is approved we would submit the form to get our address of residence changed. The other option I see is using my current address and then submitting the form when it gets changed, but I am afraid of mail mix-ups and such. So, does all this seem reasonable or will I get burned if I use an address other than my current residence.

I think that it will be fine using your parents address. They are reliable and have your interests in mind. Just make sure that they have all your info. Or that you can provide them all your info. I am not sure how changing addresses works, but just keep it there for now and you will be fine
