Change of work address?

Post by Akorotaeva » Tue Sep 12, 2017 6:06 pm

Hello!

I recently started with a new employer and they have now updated the SMS with my precise work address (as I didn't know which building exactly my office would be in when I applied).

Do I also need to inform the UKVI about this...? The Change of Circumstances form only appears to apply to changes in home addresses.

Many thanks!

Change of work address is done by your sponsor through SMS. You cannot contact UKVI about change of work address. You can only update your personal address online by yourself.

Is it that your company has many branches or your company has relocated from their former office?

Depending on your specific case, additional documents might be required from your sponsor.

No, I work at a university with numerous buildings. My CoS showed the main address as we did not at that point know precisely which building my office would be in. We do now, and that's been updated on the SMS.

Thanks!
