Moving While Applying for Immigration

While moving generally doesn't impact your federal immigration application, some vital details need attention:

  1. Update your address: Inform the USCIS of your move using Form AR-11 within 10 days. This ensures you receive important notices.

  2. Check filing jurisdiction: Some applications require filing at your current location's USCIS office. Verify the specific instructions for your situation.

  3. Interviews and appointments: If you have scheduled appointments after your move, they might occur at the new USCIS office serving your new residence.

  4. State-specific requirements: Certain immigration processes may involve specific requirements or benefits depending on your new state. Consult with an attorney for personalized advice, especially in cases like adjusting status through marriage.

Remember:

  • Stay informed about your specific immigration process's requirements.

  • Promptly update your address with USCIS to avoid missing crucial notifications.

  • Consider consulting an immigration attorney for personalized guidance based on your situation.
