You should wait until February and send in your updates with the February midyear updates form.

See the [Q&A for deferred students](Q&A for EA Deferred and Regular Action students | MIT Admissions) up on the blogs right now:

Should I send in extra materials?

You only need to send in your February Updates and Notes report, which will be available on MyMIT in January. On this report, you can provide us with your updated grades (your semester grades are very important, so keep working hard!) We will also include a text box for any other updates you’d like to provide (new awards, changes to your activities, etc…) We will accept updates in other formats, including mail and email, but the Admissions Committee will primarily look to this report for your updates.



The updates as soon as possible message might have been for after a deadline, when you’d want any updates to get in as soon as possible before they go into committee. In this case I’m pretty sure they’re not going to make any decisions regarding your application until after the February updates.
