    "Your changes cannot be saved. Please try again later." in online PR portal for IMM 5444

    I was getting an error message (can't remember if it was the same one as you're seeing or not) when filling in the dates and not having them overlap, e.g. by putting, say, 31/01/2020 as the final date at one address, and then 01/02/2020 as the first day at the next – it only accepted if end date...
