Applying for B2 with new passport

[phitdesi]

Hi
My mom applied last year for B2 and was rejected. She obtained a new passport as her old passport expired and is going for an interview next month. Will the consulate have access to her previous answers given they she is applying with a new passport now and the system will not have any records for the new passport?

Thanks

Yes, they will have access. You must answer that visa was previously rejected.
