Change address while awaiting ILR Replacement card?

[quoala]

I applied for a replacement BRP card when I lost it a month ago, and the application asked for a proof of address, which I provided at the time with a bank statement.

I just moved to another address and am not sure if a change of address report will affect the ongoing application?

I don't have access to the previous address so I'm trying to figure out if I can avoid that before the application's approval so it will get sent to the new address.

Any thoughts much appreciated!

All I can suggest is use this website: https://visa-address-update.service.gov.uk/
Suggest you also arrange with the Post office to redirect your mail: https://www.postoffice.co.uk/mail/redirection

Thanks alterhase58 - will try to report this today, as for the post office, what is the operator these days? Wonder if it is DHL or TNT the redirection won't work if not royal mail?

From my experience, BRP cards are not - normally - delivered by Royal Mail.

I also would suggest having a look at this document: BRP guidance notes It contains some email addresses and phone numbers you can try reaching out with this query and get some advice.

The Post Office is a trading name of Royal Mail - there's also a link under RM: https://www.royalmail.com/personal/rece ... edirection
