Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how often her Department checks that UK visa holders are living at the address provided.

Home Office decision makers can make enquiries as part of the visa consideration process to confirm that a person is intending to stay at the address provided in their application. Customers are encouraged to update their personal details, including their home and postal address, in their UKVI account. There is no routine check to confirm whether UK visa holders are living at the address previously provided.
