I'm trying to get my 3 proofs of residence for the last 5 years together, and all is looking pretty good except for the first year, as during this time I had no utilities in my name, I used paperless bills for my mobile provider at that time (Meteor) who no longer exist so I can't download any, and I don't seem to have kept much of a record of anything else. So I have a couple of questions .. sorry if they have been repeated a million times, I tried searching the forum but still unsure!
1) - I have asked my landlord (an auctioneer) to write a letter on headed paper stating I was resident at that address for that year. Would that count as one proof? Logically it seems it would be fine, but I notice on the form it says it must show "date of issue" so I wondered do they only accept papers that were *issued* that year, or would it be ok as long as he writes the dates concerned?
2) - when I print off my old AIB bank statements it shows my address at the time, but for the date at the top of the page just says "forwarded" - is this ok? Obviously you can see from all the dates of the transactions what year it is, but again I don't want to mess up because of a small detail.
3) - I am missing P60's for the first 2 years and I don't think my old employer will give me more copies. I saw someone mention on here that P21's can be used instead but I wanted to double-check this as it states P60 on the application. If so, would it be ok to use a P21 from 2015 for both proof of residence and as a substitute for my P60 of that year? Would I have to include 2 copies in that case?
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks
