Changing your principal place of practice address will not automatically update the address for the capacity in which you practice. You will need to complete relevant sections of the Form 905 to notify ASIC of the change in both the principal place of practice and capacity details.

Also, submitting a Form 484 to change address details for any other office held (for example: director, secretary, liquidator or member) will not update your auditor details.

You can lodge form 905 online using the auditors portal, or

download a copy of Form 905 as a PDF file.
