Hoping someone can guide me in the right direction:

I recently accepted a job promotion (same company I've been working for, for 6 years)..and relocating to Houston TX by end of October. I'll be provided temporary housing until Dec 30th so i wont necessarily have to rush into finding a place. My question is: How do we address this "change in situation" or "notify" NVC/Embassy? Change of address (temporary) + new job title/income etc. Our Interview date is scheduled for Nov 15th (a few days after i would have moved)

Thanks Everyone

Can you somehow attend the scheduled interview? If you will have to reschedule the interview through a change of addresse with USCIS to a different city, it could take weeks or even months until you get another interview date.

If you attend the scheduled interview, you can provide the officer with the new addresse there on the spot.

It's amazing how many questions can be resolved with a 2 minute Google search...

I say, make certain yer wife has your new address in her hand on interview day, and make sure the Vice-Consul gets it.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.
