Change of Address

Have you moved? Help us ensure that you receive any notices or documents without delay. Most applicants with pending applications or petitions (except A and G visa holders and visa waiver visitors) should notify us as soon as possible, no more than 10 days after your move. In order to use this self-serve tool a valid email address is required.

If you are entering the United States on an immigrant visa, we will mail your Green Card to the mailing address in the U.S. you provided at the time of your immigrant visa interview or when you were admitted entry into the United States. If you move after you arrive in the U.S., please update your address. The Form Number to select for an address change on a USCIS Immigrant Fee payment is “IVF” or “OS155A”.

If you electronically filed your case and have a USCIS online account, you should update your address in your USCIS online account. If you previously submitted a paper case and the receipt number began with IOE, you can create an account at myaccount.uscis.gov, link your case with an Online Access Code, and update your address. Use this web form to request a new Online Access Code: my.uscis.gov/account/v1/needhelp.

If you are in immigration proceedings, you must separately notify the Immigration Court of any address changes. Filing a change of address request with USCIS does not update your address with the Immigration Court.

For detailed instructions on how to change your address, please visit www.uscis.gov/addresschange. This web page has specific directions for victims of crime, Form I-751 Abuse Waivers, U.S. citizens, civil surgeons, and legal representatives.

Note: If you do not have a receipt number, you may respond NO in order to submit the AR-11 for an address change only. This action will not update the address online for a pending case.
