Declaring addresses for last three years

When me and my wife started renting together three years ago we stayed at our first place for only a year and didn't change our electoral roll addresses from our parents while there. We are registered at our current place now though.

What should we declare during our application? Our current address and previous one where we were not registered? Or only where we have been on electoral roll?

    Keep it straight forward and declare addresses as to where you have actually been living. If questions arise about the electoral register, then just be honest about it.

    You'd be best served giving an honest account of all addresses you lived at in the past 3 years regardless of whether you updated the electoral roll or not.
