Getting Ready To Submit I-130 Form - Few Questions

I-130 (Family/Consular processing)

Hello!

Question 1:

My spouse and I are getting ready to fill out the I-130 Form. When reviewing it's contents, we noticed it asks to provide an address where the beneficiary (me) intends to live. We are unsure what to put with our circumstances.

She currently lives with her family in the USA, and I reside on my own in Canada. We decided we'd continue to visit and stay with each other for extended periods of time, with the goal of renting an apartment in the USA to build our life together once this form goes through (and hopefully approved).

This means I don't have an exact address where I will be living during the submission of this form. What should I put? Should we use her family's address for example? Any insight would help a ton here!

Question 2:

When she submits the I-130 form with her USCIS account, can I (the beneficiary) keep up with the status of the application? Does it require a different account? Do I have to ask her to keep track of it? Do I get an email?

We are both incredibly excited and appreciate your time and assistance. Thanks!
