Change of Address

If you're an alien living in the United States, you are required to update the USCIS on your new address within 10 days of the change.

Why do I have to report a new adress?

The USCIS may need to contact you about current or pending petitions. It's in your best interest (to ensure that you receive your immigration benefits as quickly as possible) and legally required that you report a change of address.

How do I report a new address?

You must complete a Form AR-11. Include your present address, most recent last address, alien or registration number, country of citizenship, date of birth, indication of your current employment or school and signature. Send the completed form to the following USCIS office:

U.S. Department of Homeland Security
USCIS
Change of Address
P.O. Box 7134
London, KY 40742-7134

If you have to overnight the form, send it to:

U.S. Department of Homeland Security
USCIS
Change of Address
1084-I South Laurel Road
London, KY 40744

What happens if I don't report a change of address?

If you purposely fail to give written notice to the USCIS of a change of address within 10 days of that change, you've committed a misdemeanor crime. If convicted, you could be fined up to $200, imprisoned up to 30 days or both and be subject to removal from the United States. Failure to report a change of address could also affect your ability to obtain future visas or other immigration benefits.
