Thanks for your report.

A positive side of this coming change in overstay policy is they informed you properly of a change in rules. That's nice of them.

Don't fret it having them record your address on Google maps. When I did my first extension based on marriage I had to give them a map, and photos. Then a few days later the immigration police came to my house, (4 of them), had a look around, took a video of me and my wife at the house and interviewed one of my neighbors and took a sworn written statement from him and copies of his papers as well. That was well before this latest coup.

I give top marks to immigration for for disseminating the information efficiently.
