BRP TO BE SENT TO DIFFERENT ADDRESS

Post by Hai_Tran » Thu Jul 13, 2017 11:53 am

Hello all,

I am planning to switch to Tier 2 visa at a premium service centre. I am currently staying in university hall so my address is only temporary. Can I request to have my BRP sent to a different address rather than my uni hall address? If yes, when should I do it? I notice on the online application there is one question saying "Do you want to receive mail at a different address?" Is this the option that I can have the BRP sent to a different address?

Thanks.

You can request that your BRP be sent to your sponsor's address. I believe your sponsor's address should be the same as your office, so that's not an issue.

Hi Djsuccess,

Can I request it to be sent to another address not the sponsor's address? It is quite inconvenient for me to travel to the company head office.

Thanks.

Thanks iworker again :D ,

When do I give them the correspondence address, on the online application form or at the visa centre?

if you have not submitted the online form, you can add your correspondence address to the online form. Your correspondence address will be confirmed again after your appointment.

Yep, I haven't submitted my online application. So I guess I will fill in the correspondence address on the online form. :lol:
Thanks for all your help. Much appreciated. :wink:
