Change of Address Form. See " Guidelines
for Completing Form AR-11" below.
ISSS suggests making a photocopy of the complete
AR-11 Instructions and Forms for your personal records. ISSS also recommends sending
Form AR-11 by CERTIFIED MAIL, so that you have proof
you have complied with the requirement.
Send your change of address (Form AR-11) requests to:
U.S. Department of Homeland Security
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services
Change of Address
PO Box 7134

You can now file your AR-11 online!
When do we need to file the form?
You need to file the form if your address has changed since you
last entered the U.S. You must file it within 10 days of the change.
Please Note: while the form AR-11 is available and downloadable in language other then English, the form must be completed in English.
NAME:
Write your name exactly as it appears on your passport and I-94.
If you do not have a middle name, write the word "none"
in that space.
I AM IN THE UNITED STATES AS:
The following are supposed to check "Other" and specify their
status:
- students who have graduated and are on post completion OPT/Academic
Training
- Research Scholars
- Dependents
COPY NUMBER FROM ALIEN CARD:
Pertains only to legal permanent residents,
all others must write "none" in the space provided.
PRESENT ADDRESS:
Even if you receive all your mail at a P.O. Box, indicate your
RESIDENTIAL
address. INS has made very clear that your RESIDENCE address is
what should be written here,
not an office, department, or work address.
(IF ABOVE ADDRESS IS TEMPORARY)
I expect to remain there... You need to provide your best estimate
at the time you fill out the form. You will complete a new AR-11
when you move, so the INS will have a good idea where you live
anyway. Do not automatically estimate the number of years by the
prospective completion date indicated on your I-20/DS-2019.
I WORK FOR OR ATTEND SCHOOL AT:
- Students who graduated and are on OPT/Academic Training need
to write the company/employer name and address
- Research Scholars
at the University should write the ISSS address
- Current students
who have not graduated write the ISSS address as well
PORT/DATE OF ENTRY INTO U.S.:
This is the city or airport where you most recently
entered the U.S. Keep in mind that the AR-11 is used to update the
address information that
you indicated on the most recent I-94 (or AR-11) that you submitted.
If you have not left the
U.S. since your initial arrival, and you don't remember the date
that you entered, you can find
this date on your I-94 card, stamped in your passport, or on the
original I-20/DS-2019 that you used for your initial entry.
IF NOT A PERMANENT RESIDENT, MY STAY IN THE U.S. EXPIRES ON:
- Current students write the end date of the I-20 /DS2019
- Research scholars write the end date of their DS 2019
- Students who have graduated write the end date of
their OPT EAD or Academic Training
IF YOU ARE HERE WITH DEPENDENTS:
You need to complete and send Form AR-11 to USCIS for each person.
