USCIS Work Permit Approved - How to Ensure It's Sent to New Attorney, Not Old One?

Congrats on getting your permit approved! 🎉 I had a similar situation last year. Your best bet is to call USCIS asap and update your mailing address. They usually send important docs to the address on file.

OP, did you file an AR-11 form when you changed attorneys? Thats supposed to update your address of record with USCIS.

idk about permits, but when I got my green card they sent it to both my lawyer and me. Maybe they'll do the same for you?

Ugh, USCIS and their bureaucracy 🙄 I swear they make everything 10x more complicated than it needs to be. Good luck OP!

Here's what you need to do: 1. Call USCIS customer service ASAP (1-800-375-5283) 2. Have your receipt number ready 3. Explain the situation and ask them to update your attorney of record 4. Request that they make a note in your file about where to send the permit 5. Follow up with an email to the address listed on your approval notice 6. If possible, also fax a letter explaining the change (yes, they still use fax 🙄) I've been through this rodeo before. It's a pain, but if you're persistent, you can get it sorted out. Just don't wait - the sooner you act, the better chance you have of catching it before it's sent out.

have you tried checking the case status online? sometimes it shows where theyre sending stuff

Protip: If you cant get through on the phone, try contacting your local congressperson's office. They often have liaisons who can help with USCIS issues.
