Changing address after discharge

Hello, I am sorry if this has been asked before but I can't find anything...
I was discharged (AD after 1 year) from BR in January 2011, and have just moved house. Do I need to inform OR of new address? Thank you.

    Simply put - No.

    However, if you are ever contacted by the OR in the future you are still obligated to cooperate with them. Don't worry, if your BR was straight forward then it's highly unlikely you'll ever hear from the OR again, very few ever do.

  • Thank you for the reply. I still have a close friend living at my previous address, therefore I will receive any mail sent to me there for forseeable future, so no worries about not receiving anything they send. Just didn't know if I was obligated to inform them.

    Hi Gettingthere, As long as you have no IPA in place then as INAN has said you don't have to inform the OR anymore!! :beer:

    Best wishes
