Change of U.S. Address to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security
This section describes
the important steps you must take if your living address in the
United States changes during your stay.
Note :
The terms address, living address, physical residence and
physical address are used interchangeably in the following
text and should all be considered to mean the address where you
physically reside in the United States.
All nonimmigrants (except
those in A or G status), 14 years of age or older, who will remain
in the U.S. for 30 days or longer, are required by law to notify
the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) within 10 days of
any changes to their living address in the U.S . The parent or legal
guardian of a nonimmigrant child under the age of 14 is responsible
for notifying DHS of the child's change of address. Failure to comply
with this requirement is a violation of immigration status that
is punishable by fine or imprisonment and/or removal (“deportation”).
