    Hi, I was in NY this time last year and had my ESTA to get over.

    So i was about to reapply when i spotted that it is valid for 2 years. That said, i am staying somewhere different this time when over.

    How do i amend it so that i can display the different address when over? Anyone ever done all this?

    I think you can edit it online, but in reality nobody is going to question you on it.

    Have used my ESTA probably 12 times in the past 18 month, had no idea there was an address on it tbh.. Once it's valid you'll be grand.

    If you have a valid esta it’s valid for multiple trips. You give your details of staying to the airline and then immigration... it’s not an issue just go..:)

    Address of where you are staying is not even required for initial application.

    You don't need to update your ESTA details.

    Thanks all

    Was just wondering though.... The big dude that asks you at immigration at Dublin Airport does ask where your staying while over. Last time i mentioned wrong street and he gave out to me. Still let me past anyway but if im not editing my location this time, would it cause issues

    You will already have submitted your API which is linked to your ESTA so again, no, you do not need to update it.

    They'll still ask but just have proof of where you're staying (hotel confirm or relatives place). I've been over & back to the US a bit on the one ESTA and never had a problem with the address part. I always have all my documents ready to go at the pre-clearance (or immigration) and if they ask me the address, I'll know the name of the hotel but might not know the full address off so I just say that. Actually come to think of it the only time they questioned me a bit further was when I did know the address fully off as it was my aunt's & I knew it anyway!

    So i just looked up my application online and it says "expired"

    Flying next month.

    It may be because i have since put an application in and saved it (before i started this thread) but never paid anything. How do i find out if its ok?

    If it says expired then you need to fill out and pay for a new one. The application only remains live for a certain period without payment. Unless you have a different reference number you can search under. Most will be cleared within 72 hours so you still have time.
