I'm proposing  to add form_valid  function  and make  next trick


 def form_valid(self, form)
 # avoid to early savind od the new address
        newaddress  = form.save(commit=False)
       # you need to update object by correct client id value. Keep in
mind that I'm writing  without django from brain only :-)
        newaddress.client_id = self.client_data.id
       # now  we are ready to save new address
        newaddress.save()
        return http.HttpResponseRedirect(self.get_success_url())
