The Trump administration is focusing on fully enforcing existing immigration laws, including the requirement that noncitizens file Form AR-11 to notify U.S. Citizenship and Immigration of a change in residence within 10 days of moving. For F-1 visa holders, you do not fill out a form; rather, notify the designated signing officer. This is in reference to CFR 265.1, a Title 8 regulation.
Because the penalties for failure to file are severe, including possible removal (deportation), it is critical that all non-U.S. citizens (including permanent residents) ensure they timely file Form AR-11 with each residential move. While the penalties discussed below are not new, they typically have not been enforced to their fullest extent.
F-1 Visa holders:
This is a reminder that you are required to report an address change within 10 days of the change to the primary designated signing officer (Kerry Ford, at fordk@georgefox.edu) or DSO (David Martinez and Wendi Upjohn-Hankel) and/or the International Student Services Office.
All other Visa holders:
How to File
Form AR-11 can be filed either electronically through a USCIS online account, or by mail. USCIS provides instructions on both methods, including how to create a USCIS online account, at the following link: How to Change Your Address. A USCIS video guide is also available on YouTube: Changing Your Address in Your USCIS Online Account.
Filing AR-11 through a USCIS online account has the benefit of updating an address change for pending cases with USCIS. Additionally, noncitizens can retain a record of their AR-11 submission online as evidence of their compliance with this legal requirement.
Penalties
Failure to update USCIS of a change in residential address within 10 days of moving is a misdemeanor and may result in the following penalties under INA 266 (8 USC 1306):
Given the potential for consequences, which can also impact future immigration benefits, it is particularly critical that noncitizens make note of this reporting requirement.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Kerry Ford at fordk@georgefox.edu.

In previous trips, we have seen kids and adults receive healthcare for the first time in their lives, after walking hours through rural Uganda to our large medical clinics. We have seen teenagers with cerebral palsy walk for the first time and even start playing soccer with friends.
We have helped Ugandans with amputations return to the professional world in previously lost careers. We have even saved the lives of kids with hydrocephalus, and helped adults with progressive cancers by identifying their condition and ensuring they get the medical care they need.
