Change of Home Address

Post by Djsuccess » Fri Dec 23, 2016 8:51 am

Good day to you all,


Please I am in the process of changing my house address. I know there is an online form I can complete to notify UKVI that I have changed my home address.
My question is that does my sponsor also need to use the SMS to notify UKVI in addition to me personally notifying UKVI?

Or do I just need either myself or my sponsor to notify UKVI?



Thanks.
I am not a lawyer and do not claim to be one. All my comments here are based on my opinions, experience and interpretation of the appropriate UKVI guidance documents and immigration rules.

No your employer does not need to notify this through SMS but they must update your address with effective date in their records. They should also have your complete (old addresses) address/phone number history in their records.

You are supposed to notify UKVI yourself about change of address.

Thanks,
