The applicant can edit these things on the web page interface. (at least I
think they can. If they can't do this, they can contact the FD and I'll
fix it)

No! They should contact their AM and re-establish contact.

OK, this is a problem for the AM, who can't contact someone they don't
have a valid address for.
It isn't the AMs responsibility to do this, it is the applicants.
If the applicant can't reach their assigned AM, only then should they
contact the Front Desk for re-assignment.
