    hello great video! But the part I really need to know is, am I required to sign section 7 just to change the address on my driver's license? and I don't want to change photos, so there is no need to send photos?

    I have mislaid my full driving licence in my flat. Put it somewhere safe. Can't find it.
    How do I replace it? Need to go on a speed awareness course and my driving licence is my only photo id. They need to see the original document.

    HELP! The Dvla requires I have a passport in my new name to change my name on my license. The Passport Office requires I have proof of use of my new name before I can apply for a new passport. My bank wants government issued photo ID in my new name before I can change my name with them. I need Bank statements/letters as proof of usage of the new name. Nothing makes sense!!!

    Hi, I wonder if you could help me please. I did a change of surname and address by sending a D1 form, however they have returned it without changing any of my details because “you haven't included evidence of your name change” however I did, I gave them my passport number as stated on pages 5 & 10 of the “how to” leaflet that comes with the D1. It clearly states that for a name change you can give your passport number instead of sending any documents. It also states this again on section 5 of the D1 form itself. On calling them they told me I was wrong, even though I talked them through the leaflet (call handler had a leaflet to hand) and section 5 of the form itself as proof. I cannot send my original documents as I only have 1 of 1 original which is irreplaceable and will not be posting it. I paid £300 for a face to face passport appointment (in which I handed them the original myself and they gave it straight back to me) specifically so that I could give DVLA my passport number for the name change without the need to send my original. What should I do?

    • @Dad-howdoIUK
      @Dad-howdoIUK  Рік тому

      This is two different questions.
      Photo. If you have a valid uk passport then just do the online photo change
      Name. Use the d1 to change name and inclose the original deed poll certificate
      Please watch the other videos for help but it’s an ok process. Just take your time.
