Guys an odd one this. I will need a photo id soon & I don`t have either a passport or photo/ driving license. Any ideas

[05omegav6]

Best apply for one or tother sharpish

Generally, places asking for photo ID want either of those, as the government checks are deeded good enough, and both are difficult to forge.

I gave my employees photo IDs for when they worked in the shop, or visiting suppliers / customers.
Printed them out on an inkjet, attached a passport photo, and laminated and trimmed to size.

Taken as proof of ID at quite a few places (blockbusters  , the scrap yard, the gym when I forget my membership card...)
It's not fraud if you use your real identitity.
Depends what you need the photo ID for.

I said it was an odd one
I need to make a will & one of the clauses included in my solicitors letter mentions I will need photo id. as well as a current bank statement & utility bill.
Is that common practise? & this is the solicitor I used to buy a house.

Yep. Solicitor needed photo ID last time I moved house, despite having dealt with all the family's affairs since I was in a school uniform.

Money laundering legislation, apparently.

Just remember that once you have a photo driving licence it only lasts 10 years and you have to renw it again. A passport is good for 10 years but if you dont want it after you dont have to renew it
