I changed API calling Find a Location by Address to Find a Location by Query and it sends same geo location which when we search address in bingmap website.

No other solution I could found in Find a Location by Address API.

var url = "https://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Locations?query=" 
+ encodeURIComponent('Oakleaf Dr Meadow Valley CA 95956 United States')
+ "&incl=queryParse"
+ "&output=json"
+ "&key=" + BingmapKey

What you have seems right, I just added a period after the 'Dr' and it changed it to the correct location you wanted.
