Answer: 

A filed Proof of Claim may contain an address where to send notices and a different address where to send payment, or just one address for both notices and payment.

Notice Address: If the address where to send notices changes, immediately file a Notice of Change of Address with the Court in accordance with Bankruptcy Local Rule 2002-2, stating the new address.

Payment Address: If the address where to send payment changes, file an amended Proof of Claim stating the new address where to send payment.

Notice and Payment Same Address: If the same address used for both notices and payment changes, immediately file a Notice of Change of Address with the Court in accordance with Bankruptcy Local Rule 2002-2.  Wait 24 hours, and then file an amended Proof of Claim stating the new address.

Notice of Change of Address forms are posted on the District Forms webpage.  An amended Proof of Claim may be filed on paper, or via ECF or ePOC.
