                     INVESCO VARIABLE INVESTMENT FUNDS, INC.
                         INVESCO VIF-Dynamics Portfolio

                   Supplement to Prospectus Dated May 1, 1998

The  section of the above  Portfolio's  Prospectus  entitled  "Risk  Factors" is
amended to add the following paragraph after the fourth paragraph:

          Year 2000 Computer Issue.  Due to the fact that many computer  systems
     in use today cannot  recognize the year 2000, but will,  unless  corrected,
     revert to 1900 or 1980 or cease to function  at that time,  the markets for
     securities  in which the Fund  invests  may be  detrimentally  affected  by
     computer  failures  throughout the financial  services  industry  beginning
     January 1,  2000.  Improperly  functioning  trading  systems  may result in
     settlement  problems  and  liquidity  issues.  In addition,  corporate  and
     governmental  data  processing  errors may result in production  issues for
     individual  companies  and  overall  economic  uncertainties.  Earnings  of
     individual  issuers  will be affected by  remediation  costs,  which may be
     substantial. The Fund's investments may be adversely affected.

The section of the above Portfolio's Prospectus entitled "Management" is amended
to (1) delete the ninth paragraph, and (2) substitute the following paragraph in
its place:

          The Company also has entered into an Administrative Services Agreement
     with IFG dated February 28, 1998 (the "Administrative Agreement"). Pursuant
     to the  Administrative  Agreement,  IFG or such other companies,  including
     affiliates  of IFG,  that may have been selected by IFG and approved by the
     Company's   board   of   directors,    perform   certain    administrative,
     record-keeping  and  internal  accounting  services,   including,   without
     limitation,   maintaining   general  ledger  and  capital  stock  accounts,
     preparing  a daily  trial  balance,  calculating  net  asset  value  daily,
     providing selected general ledger reports, providing certain sub-accounting
     and  record-keeping  services  for  shareholder  accounts,  preparation  of
     prospectuses,  proxy  statements,  annual reports and similar documents for
     existing  contract  owners,   facilitation  of  purchases  and  redemptions
     requested  by  contract  owners  and  other  contract  owner  services  and
     communications.  The Fund  reimburses  IFG for its costs in  providing,  or
     assuring that Participating Insurance Company provide, these services in an
     amount up to $10,000  per year (the  "Base  Fee"),  plus  0.015% of the net
     assets of the Fund,  plus,  effective July 6, 1998, an additional  0.25% of
     the gross new  assets  (new sales of  shares,  exchanges  into the Fund and
     reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions) of the Fund (the
     "Incremental  Fees").  IFG may pay all or a portion of the Base Fee and the
     Incremental  Fees to other companies that assist in providing the services.
     IFG  also  is  paid a fee by  the  Company  for  providing  transfer  agent
     services. See "Additional Information."

The section of the above Portfolio's Prospectus entitled "Management" is amended
to add the following paragraph after the ninth paragraph:

          The management and custodial  services provided to the Fund by IFG and
     the Fund's custodian,  and the services provided to shareholders by IDI and
     IFG, depend on the continued  functioning of their computer  systems.  Many
     computer  systems in use today  cannot  recognize  the year 2000,  but will
     revert to 1900 or 1980 or will cease to function due to the manner in which
     dates were encoded and are  calculated.  That failure could have a negative
     impact on the handling of the Fund's securities  trades,  its share pricing
     and its  account  services.  The Fund and its  service  provider  have been
     actively  working on necessary  changes to their  computer  systems to deal
     with the year 2000 and expect  that their  systems  will be adapted  before
     that  date,  but there can be no  assurance  that they will be  successful.
     Furthermore,  services  may be  impaired  at that  time as a result  of the
     interaction of their systems with others' non-complying computer systems.

The section of the above Portfolio's Prospectus entitled "Management" is amended
to (1) delete the third sentence of the tenth paragraph,  and (2) substitute the
following sentence in its place:

          Certain Fund  expenses are absorbed  voluntarily  by IFG pursuant to a
     commitment  to the Company to limit the Fund's  annual  expenses to no more
     than 0.90% of the Fund's average net assets prior to July 6, 1998 and to no
     more than 1.15% of the Fund's average net assets effective July 6, 1998.

The date of this Supplement is July 6, 1998.
