As I haven't used the online update form, there are others on the forum better placed to advise.

Edit: Reading through the link I posted for you, all that you are required to submit is included there. :idea:

Its quite straightforward scher, just make sure you have a scanned copy of your passport/BRP/driving license to prove identity, and also a soft copy of your bank statements/utility bills/council tax bill/other documents listed on the page to prove your new address. They say say update the address within 3 working days, though they don't send you any confirmation that they have done it.
