NVC interview questions regarding current employment and residency status ?

[Ashkalion 0]

Hello! Can someone please help me with my concerns?

i have submitted all the documents to nvc and they approved my documents and set up an interview. During the time I was waiting for them to send me documents approval letter, I moved to a different location and got a new job.

now I didn’t update any of my current status with the nvc since they have accepted my documents.

my questions are:
1. during the interview if my spouse is asked questions regarding my current job and location, should she only talk about what we have documented as my current employment status and residency?

2. Does NVC get an update of any changes in someone’s residency and employment status through database immediately even if we don’t let them know?

1. If your interviewer asks you "Has there been any change in your situation" or whatever just tell them the truth. Nobody's requiring you to stay at the same address or job while you're waiting on your visa, but how are you expecting them to mail papers to you if necessary? 

2. NVC doesn't get an update of your address or employment status. There's no linked database that lets them know immediately if you moved, no.

 

Here's a page about change of address; it's mainly about notifying USCIS if you move after you're already in the US (you're required to let them know within 10 days of a move if you have a green card). https://www.uscis.gov/addresschange

 

I poked around a little and found this information:  "If petitioner or beneficiary changes a mailing address during a pending I-130, don’t forget to inform USCIS.
Call USCIS at 1-800-375-5283 to change the address with your pending I-130 petition".

Thanks. My family leaves on my previous location so, getting mails is not an issue.

by looking up your ssn and ID through database if they want to.

Which database?  There is no centralized database in the US that tracks employment or residence.

If you changed jobs then your I-864 is no longer current and you should provide your spouse with an updated I-864 with supporting documents for the interview.  Stating your old info wouldn't be truthful.
