Americanwannabe, Thanks for the update. INS website has 2 addresses one with PO Box and other is for commercial overnight or fast freight services, only; Does certified usps mail send back acknowledgement? For certified usps mail, do i need to send it to the Non-PO address?

Is it more advisable to send it through fedex and ask for a signed acknowledgement stating that INS received my change of address? Thanks!

any chances?

Joef is very knowledgeable when it comes to immigration questions. No doubt about that. He has been helpful in the past but not sure why he is so upset now?

If the company in India pays in the local currency, is the salary still taxable? I believe there is a tax treaty between India and USA to avoid double taxation. Further does this not run contradictary to the intention of having a green card (working in some other country)?

joef - One more related question joef, Thanks for your feedback. I had 1 more related question. Is it essential that the company sponsoring my N-470 needs to pay my salary in US dollars? Or is it ok if they only pay in the currency of the country I am being posted to?
