Do we need to change the DL address?

The driver's license is not just for driving, it's also an important identification document and by state law you're supposed to update it soon after changing your address (different states will have different limits, whether it's 10 days, 15 days, 30 days).

For the interview, it is VERY important that both of you have a DL or state ID with the same address as each other, and the same address as your recent bank statements and bills. Having different addresses on your licenses would counteract your efforts of presenting yourselves as a bona fide couple that lives together, and could make the interview more difficult and/or result in the interviewer putting the case on hold until you have licenses with matching addresses (and once they put the case on hold, it can stay on hold for a looooooong time even after you provide the new evidence).
