I am a U. S. Customs and Border Protection Officer on the southwest border between Mexico and the United States. I know the ins and outs of the job as seen on TV/News and things intentionally hidden from the media! There's more to this job than "Anything to declare?" I dont know all but I'll do my best to answer any questions you have! All answers are my opinion, and my opinion only!
You are not restricted to the address you listed on your visa application. When you apply for admission when entering the United States, you will be asked to fill out a blue customs declaration form (6059B). On this form, list the address you will be staying at.
If you have a special work visa, you would need to contact your employer to update the information.

Some countries, by law, we are required to notify their consulate that you have been detained by CBP. Most countries, its voluntary on our part and only if you request it. If you are a violent criminal, we may contact your local authorities. However, for most immigration issues, you just return as a normal traveler like your just coming back from vacation.
This is the list of countries which is mandatory to notify:https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/consularnotification/countries-and-jurisdictions-with-mandatory-notifications.html

I'm not sure of your question, but photos and fingerprints are in our system permanently. There may be an expiration date but none that I know of.

No, no need for a medical certificate. If you are seeking medical treatment in the United States, then you may need to present insurance information or bank statements showing you can pay for the treatments.

Yes, passport, ESTA, and a parental consent form that is notarized will work for you.
Please, make sure it is notarized, or stamped by an official, prior to entering the United States.

If you are adjusting status, you cannot also apply for a non-immigrant visa. It is illegal. You can, however, withdraw your application with USCIS prior to applying for a non-immigrant TN visa. Do not apply for the TN until after you withdrew your application.
I am not sure of the process on the USCIS side of things, but I would contact them to find out. I am sure it is a fairly simple process. You can even visit one of their offices. I think your parents only have to withdraw the I-864, Affidavit of Support, from your file and thats it.
After you communicated with them, then it will be appropriate for you to apply for TN.

I cant tell you exactly but everything thats written on the passport gets populated on the screen. Also, if you've been arrested, we'll know. If you've ever had any immigration issues, we'll know. A larger version of your picture populates the screen so we can compare your face to the picture easier.
