Hello All,

I had applied for my wife's joint citizenship and passport application in Manchester. Month after her application, we moved to Essex. I changed the address using Home Office change of address website.

Today we have received a confirmation of successful Citizenship application and invitation to the ceremony.

My question is, do I need to tell passport office regarding the change of address or they should be having my updated address from Home Office database? In my passport application, they have my old address. Thanks.

Regards

Yes, you should tell HMPO, which is a completely different government department.

Thanks. Can you provide me with a number / email id where I should contact them? Thanks

Google?!

And the HMPO gov website

My wife had the same situation.

If you look at your JCAP application receipt, you will find their contact number. Contact them with this number and tell them your JCAP reference number and your situation.

They will tell you a post address for your address change request letter and will ask you to send the letter (with your JCAP reference number) and an evidence of your address change (ie, bank or mortgage statement with new address) before your ceremony.

My wife sent to them the request letter with copies of her bank statement and citizen ceremony invitation letter.

She was sent back her evidences a few days later.

She got her passport 4 days later after the ceremony.
