So I recently moved and changed my address with the CFO. However, now I’ve found I made a mistake on the postal code. Ordinary I would just sign in to RCMP web services and change it, but I have 2 transfers in progress using the address (not yet approved). Do I need to get an ATT to change a few digits of my postal code even though I don’t even have any restricteds in hand yet? It would be great if I could just fix it online and be done with it, but given how much of a legal pain things can be I’m not 100% sure on this one

In terms of postal code all the information I have is this. I went in for my CFSC put the correct address wrong postal code. I did my 5592 with same address but actual postal code. Sent papers to rcmp Althea yesterday morning contacted cfo they didn’t answer so I emailed the situation they said RCMP doesn’t make a big deal out of that and they’ll most likely follow your ID or call to get the correct address/postal code. That’s all the info I have for postal code and RCMP not sure if this helps
