  • A valid UK passport
  • A UK photocard driving licence (from DVLA or DVA in Northern Ireland)
  • A recent payslip (from the last 3 months) or a P60 from the last year
  • Details of any tax credit claims you’ve made
  • Information from a Self Assessment tax return, if you’ve filed one in the last 2 years
  • Details from your credit record, like loans, credit cards, or mortgages

Your personal tax account also lets you check and manage other details.
