Renewing passport while case is at NVC

Quick question, with a kind of unusual situation. I uploaded my documents two weeks ago and have not heard anything yet from the NVC—completely normal. But, my spouse renewed her passport today and has the new one in hand. Do I need to upload a photo/scan of the new passport? Will it mess things up that the old passport that the NVC has a scan of is no longer the immigrant's valid passport? I would hate to lose the last two weeks in the queue, but it would also be unpleasant to wait more time and then get a request for that document and have to wait again.

 

If anyone has had a similar experience or knows where I could find more info about this on the government website, I would be grateful to know more!

No, I don't think so.

No, that can be taken care of at the interview. She can just show up with the new passport. The only potential problem now is that if the old passport has less than 6 months of validity like they require then they may reject that.
