You must report any changes in your circumstances if youre in the UK and have either:

• got a valid biometric residence permit (BRP)
• applied for a BRP but have not had a decision yet

How you do this depends on whether you have an eVisa or not.

If you have an eVisa

Sign in to your UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) account to update any of these details online:

• name, for example if youve got married
• address or phone number
• nationality
• facial appearance
• date of birth, for example if it was wrong
• gender

If you do not have an eVisa

You can no longer apply for a new BRP. You need to set up access to your eVisa.

An eVisa is an online record of your immigration status. You can use it to prove your status, instead of using your BRP.

You can then sign in to your UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) account to update your details online.

If you cannot access your eVisa and update your UKVI account

Contact UK Visas and Immigration to get help with your UKVI account or guidance about how to access your eVisa.

You can still update your address if you do not have an eVisa yet, either:

• report a change of address online
• fill in the change of circumstances form and send it to the address on the form

Changes you cannot report in your UKVI account

You must report any other changes to the details you gave in your BRP application, including if:

• you get a criminal conviction
• you separate from your partner
• any of your children stop living permanently with you

Fill in the change of circumstances form and send it to the address on the form.
