Applicants are responsible for updating their contact information (such as name, address, phone numbers, and email addresses) and other information on their application or online account. The applicant is responsible for notifying the responsible Human Resources office if contact information or veterans’ preference entitlement changes after an application is submitted.

When informed of a change, Human Resources will re-adjudicate veterans’ preference and make adjustments to correct the eligible’s standing on the hiring list, if appropriate (see 487).
