Hello,
I have applied for naturalisation via 5 year Tier 2 General + 1 year ILR route. On 30/11 I received an email with pdf letter attached saying that "your application for British citizenship has been successful." Letter also says that I now need to wait for Citizenship Ceremony Invitation Letter.

Looking at the timeline thread it may take a few month between now and Citizenship Ceremony Invitation Letter to be received.

The issue is that I am changing the address within the same council. Who do I need to notify and how? Shall I specifically say to Council department running ceremonies about change of my address? And separately Home Office?

Thanks

You already have an existing thread:

Changing address can be tricky when it comes to official mail. However, you can use the UKVI address change service.

Even if you change your address, note sometimes the official mail can be sent at the previous address in error/HO simply does not update it. Its always a best practice to keep a contact at your previous address if possible and use Royal Mail redirection (which again can not be really trusted with official mail).

Excellent. Thanks for the piece of advice

Hi,

I am in the same situation. I am not sure if a postal redirection could work.

In case of a failed postal redirection and returned to the council.. could this be a problem?

I read it is sent via Special Delivery. Could the new tenant receive it and keep it for you?
I don't know whether only the recipient can sign the delivery.
