Address update happens in following cases.

  • If you have some typo or clerical error in your address, you can correct it with form 8
  • If you want to update your address with a new address, but with in same constituency, you can use form 8A
  • If you want to update your address with a new address, but outside of your existing constituency, you can use form 6. This happens when you move from one city/state to another city/state
