Some people said if your DS260 was filled a long time ago ( for example, 2 years ago), then the consulate would actively re-open the form a few days before the interview and notice you to update it. Is that correct? And if the consulate does not re-open the form actively, do I have to contact them and ask them to re-open it and update it prior to interview? Or , I do not need to do that, instead I can just wait until interview and tell the officer about the changes(for example the passport) directly at the interview?
