For people that have put their children under their DTV visa. What document did you use for proof of current location?? I’ve got a 2 year old that doesn’t exactly have any mail or proof of address…

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a DTV visa for children, various documents can serve as proof of current location. Common suggestions from expats include a copy of the child's passport front page, a birth certificate, or a health clinic document that includes the child's name and address. Other options mentioned include a doctor's letter confirming an appointment with the child's name on it, or a banking document if the child has a bank account. Additionally, flight bookings into the country of application may also be acceptable.

We used a document from the health clinic she went to. It came in the mail so it had her name and address.

I used a doctor’s letter in the UK for a confirmed appointment that had my kid’s name. If your kid has a bank account maybe you can use some document from the bank also to show the address.

A copy of their passport front page or birth certificate is usually fine
