Thanks CR001 for your response.

You mean write a cover letter with the new address and submit during the BRP appointment ?
Do I need to upload the letter too before our appointment ?

Also, no need to update online if there is any web link ?

Yes, upload with your supporting documents. Once you have attended biometrics, then update on the UKVI website link.

Thanks to all the gurus for providing genuine guidance from the beginning. My dependent's visas are approved within a week of our appointment and we had received the BRPs on 6th July.

Just a quick query - what will we do with our old BRPs ? Do we need to return (no instruction provided for this) to HO or dispose them by cutting into pieces? Kindly advise.

Thanks humanist100 for providing this info.
However, I just checked online this address is used when you return your BRP after getting naturalization ? Are both same ? Please advise. Thanks.

Yes. This is the address given in my wife's ILR approval letter.

If you hold a Biometric Residence Permit (BRP) which is no longer valid, either
because your right to remain has expired or it has been superseded by a further
grant, you must now return it to the Home Office. You should cut the card into
quarters and post it in a plain, windowless envelope. If you are returning the BRP
from within the UK then please send it to: BRP Returns, P.O. Box 195, Bristol, BS20
1BT. If you are returning the BRP from outside of the UK please send it to: BRP
Returns, Home Office, Conference House, Conference Avenue, Portishead Office
Park, Portishead, Bristol. BS20 7LZ. You may be subject to a financial penalty of up
to £1,000 if you fail to return your old BRP.
