thanks for reply jpemberthy,but this is still not working for me.I can clearly see in my development log like thisproject_name_development['people'].update({"_id"=>BSON::ObjectID('4c5106b6f1936f036c000008'), "address._id"=>"4c5106b6f1936f036c000006"}, {"$set"=>{"address.city"=>"bhaktapur", "address.province"=>"kathmandu"}})which i think should update the address.And i have "address.update_attributes(address_attribute)" in my Person model where address_attribute is the hash of addressAm i missing something?

I'm not sure what could be happening then, If you want, please paste a console flow and the models code in a gist, so It will be easier to help you.
