Can I Register If I’ve Recently Moved House?

AI Summary

Yes — if you’ve recently moved house, Swindon says you can still apply, but you need to update your housing application if your address has changed. If you’re moving into a new address, you can also use the council’s online move-home form to update Council Tax and other records.
