public function goBack(e:Event):void{
    e.currentTarget.parent.parent.visible = false;
}

You can also add an id to the custom component like this,

<custom:AddressForm  id="myCustomComponent">

  </custom:AddressForm>

and access the control whose visibility can be set,

public function goBack(e:Event):void{
    myCustomComponent.main.visible = false;
}
