Please help with I-864 AoS

Hi guys. I was looking at the poverty guidelines for 2020 and 2021 and since Im composing a cover letter for I-864s, im a little confused if I should take into account the USCIS website's 2020 guideline or the new guideline for 2021 which isn't included on USCIS website yet? My husband's interview is next week so since uscis hasn't updated their website for the 2021 poverty guideline, do you think the consular officer will judge my sponsorship by 2020 or 2021 even though USCIS isn't updating for some reason? Aren't they supposed to update immediately when the guidelines get published by the federal government otherwise it gets confusing which option people should consider if there's a new 2021 one yet immigration shows 2020 still. I'd like to get your opinion please and maybe someone here knows why USCIS isn't updating.

Cover letter is unnecessary. It won’t be read. The forms and associated requested documentation is all that’s needed. Don’t complicate your submission.   Be prepared to be checked against the 2021 poverty guidelines ..you may not be held to these but if you meet the higher financial level you’ll meet the lower one.
