Thank you so much for your prompt response. I've already emailed the Citizenship email address, providing my application reference and sharing both my old and new passport details for updating in their system. Now, I'm waiting for their acknowledgment of the email so that I can proceed with the new details. Is it correct for me to await their confirmation?
You may never get a response or acknowledgement. Or you may get a cut and paste response that has no relevance to your message. Or you may get a sensible response.
In either case they are unlikely to update your application with the new passport number. They don’t track it. They simply run digital checks with national passport issuers at the time they use it to see if passport data matches national registers. I think you are crediting them with far more database management than they are anywhere near close to being.
I’d proceed with the evetting, but entirely up to you. Whatever you do you may get another request for evetting in 6 months and then another email saying you’ve now got an ineligible evetting submission due to duplication. There’s very little about that process that adheres to common sense or professional process management.
