I'd really appreciate it if anyone could help.

I already submitted my SET(O) application for ILR under 10 years long residence. Now I want to update UKBA my new correspondence address. I want to write them a letter, but unsure where to send to. Is it the Liverpool address or Croydon? Anyone could let me know the right full address that would be very much appreciated.

Also, how long does it take to update it in their database? Will they send back a letter to my new address confirming they've done so?

Thank you.

1. Use Change of address in the UK.
2. If you wish to write to UKBA (as well), you will need to ensure that the correspondence reaches either the caseworker / team handling your application or the department / team responsible for documenting such changes. Else, the correspondence may never reach where it should. Best that you call UKBA and enquire where such correspondence needs to be sent.

Thanks very much for the help.

In the online form, it asks for Home Office Reference number. What is this number for SET (O) 10 year long residence case?

I have so far received an acknowledgment letter, I can see a long number there - "IL" followed by 10 digits. Is this the right number to give?
