Question - trying to avoid transfer

My husband is a US Citizen, and I've filed for a Green Card as a spouse from Oragon.

Three months ago I moved to Houston to finish one year internship that I need to graduate. I'm living with my mother-in-law while I try to finish my internship.
I did not file AR-11 because my husband still works and lives there. We own a house in Oragon. I just received fingerprinting notice for mid-november.

Because of my internship I will not be able to take a single day off during the week. Can I go get my finger printing done here?
What about the interview?
I don't want them to transfer the case to Houston, because it takes very long time here in Houston, and in 9 months I will be back in Oragon.
Any suggestion will be helpful.

The law requires that you submit AR-11 whenever you change address. AR-11 does not update your AOS files, you have to call USCIS to have your records updated with your new address.

You dont have to change your DO if you still plan to be in Oregon for your interview. Regarding your FP (if you applied for AOS recently), USCIS decides yous FP date/time/location and you may want to call USCIS and check with them on this.
