How to change your address in LIC Policies? This is one of the common questions asked by many people who have purchased LIC policies. 

The address given by them while buying their LIC policies might have changed due to their job or business responsibilities. In such case, it is not easy to track notifications from LIC as they will send all communication to your old address. 

In this post, let us take a look at how to change your address in your LIC policies.



Why should you update your Address in LIC Policies?

Your address is very important for communication between you and your LIC branch. Without your latest address, LIC would not be in a position to contact you for any service offering. 

LIC would not like to keep any benefit that is due to you pending for want of this very important information. Whenever you shift residences, please inform the new address to your LIC branch. 

Otherwise, any communication LIC send to you, like premium notices, discharge vouchers for maturity and survival benefits etc., will get delayed in reaching you. 

So for a better communication between you and your LIC branch, it is always advisable to change your address in LIC policies as soon as possible.
