Personal details - current or historical?

When requesting a correction of a historical return, do I use the personal details (address etc. ) which applied during the year of assessment, or update to reflect the current details?

I am worried that this will trigger additional adminstrative procedures (validation of details etc. ), which is difficult as I now reside overseas.

You need to add your current details as submitting old details will cause SARS to not be able to get hold of you if they need any further information from you.
