Your address history may not fit a simple “one address after another” pattern. This is common.
Examples include:
Students who:
Live at a university address during term time, and
Live at a parents’ or family home between terms.
People who have:
Worked away from home
Lived on a canal boat, cruise ship, or merchant vessel
Lived overseas
Lived in a refuge or sheltered accommodation
Been in prison
Had no fixed abode
Been a member of HM Armed Forces
You still need to give a full five‑year history, but how you record these situations may differ.
