The U.S. law requires nearly all non-U.S. Citizens to report a change of address within 10 days of moving. All non-U.S. citizens who are required to be registered are also required to keep the USCIS informed of their present address. The change of address notification to the USCIS is also mandatory for any alien who has been designated as a “special registrant” under 8 CFR § 264.1(f).
