Wrong Postcode

I just realized that I gave wrong postcode to homeoffice

Do you think this is a big problem?
Has anyone made a mistake with address before?
I don't have any major problems.
Thanks

Instead of OX1 I wrote OX2

I wouldn't worry about it.

It wont do you any harm if you write a letter to HO or phone to correct the mistake. However, as you have been advised by the moderator, even with the wrong post code, a good/experienced postman will know which street is in which post code.

Hi Everyone!

I'm very upset today. Today I sent documents to HO for my visa extension. Visa expires on 31st Dec 10. When I come back home I found that I did a big mistake with address. I sent at Courier Address instead of Postal Address to HO though I sent with Special Delivery. Please someone help me out to know what'll be the solution now. Moreover Post Office receipt I saw they've written wrong Post Code e.g. DH99 1PA. Anyway, I found that there's no post code exist like this.

Looking you for your reply.

Thanks

The postal address is normally on the very front of the page of the application form. As your visa runs out on 31st December, you still have time to re-send the application so you may want to get it re-posted (to the correct address) as soon as you can.

You're wrong Chinagef. Today morning I went to Royal mail office and talked about the situation. They said it happens seldom but either postman or UKBA send them in a right place. However I tracked my documents through Royalmail online tracking service and saw that they delivered it in its post box address. I'm happy and tension free now.

My friend, I was not wrong - you were just lucky in this instance and it is not the norm as confirmed by the post office. Besides, my advice was not applicable as your application was not returned back to you.

In the future, you may wish to double check to which address you send it to as you may not be as lucky next time round.
