Hey everyone, I'm Irish applying for DTV through london, they got back to me asking for more documents. I'm not sure what to give for proof of current location. I did try to submit bank statements originally but they are asking for either a driving license or utility bill, I have no license or bills in my name, also trying to get over ASAP so don't want to sign up to something and wait for a bill. Has anyone else had a similar issue and what did you use? Thanks!

Answer summary

An Irish expat applying for a DTV visa through London is facing challenges in providing proof of current location, as the embassy requires either a driving license or a utility bill. The applicant does not have these documents in their name and seeks advice on alternative proof. Comments suggest options like using letters from government agencies, applying for a provisional license, or providing a photo with a daily newspaper at a known landmark.

I have a couple of letters from revenue I could use but I'm just worried cause they only said utility bill or licence, maybe if I try get a few other things with my address they'll accept 🤞

i would use the revenue letter.

That's a government letter with your address.

Just send that. If it won't do they will just request something else

Somebody suggested to me previously to go to a known landmark with the daily paper. That way it proves where you are on the date you submit the photo. X

like the Thai embassy in London if you are there. Would be quite funny too.
