Answer 1

Here's the wording from the CIS website:

"Most customers can now notify USCIS to change their address on a pending case online here on our website.

Customers who have an application and/or petition which has been filed with USCIS but has not yet been decided (also known as a 'pending' case) should notify USCIS of any change of address as soon as possible after moving.

If you choose to change your address online using our Online Change of Address Notification tool, you will need to have some information available. Please have the following information available before you begin:

Your receipt notice or other notice we sent you showing your receipt number (if you have a pending case with USCIS).

Your new address

Your old address

If you have filed a petition for a family member, please have the names and biographical information for that person."

Answer 2

call USCIS or wait

Answer 3

Well, is there someone at that address in Mexico now or not? You can certainly try to contact the USCIS Service Center or your local USCIS office to change your address, but chances are fair that they haven't even touched it yet, much less date entered it.  And, if they haven't, there isn't much they can do until they do.  I'd go in person to your USCIS office. The California Service Center isn't noted for its sterling mail room operation.

Edit: Didn't realize you are currently in Mexico. It is more difficult to see USCIS there. However, it's not that tough in the US. It's a lot more difficult to call though. Giving USCIS the biodata to help change the address may work, but it's a lot easier to figure out which petition is yours, once you have a case number. That doesn't require nearly as much work to connect the dots. Lots of same and similar names in the system, especially Hispanic ones, but numbers are usually clean and easy.
