Can You Solve This Conundrum?

Yes. Thanks for that. I am struggling to get my wifes name registered to our address. I/We dont pay council tax as it isnt a requirement on IOM. I/We dont use gas. I/We pay our landlord for electricity. She doesnt have a bank account as she hasnt got proof of address yet and we aren't yet registered with the GP although this is ongoing just now.

It can often be a bit of a 'catch 22'

But just as a first step, had you considered a new joint bank account at your existing bank.
Take the option to have paper statements sent every quarter.

Also how about your water supplier.

Once she has proof of address there are probably a few other sources she could tap into.
Usually when registered at the GP she will receive an NHS medical card.
Also don't forget application for National Insurance.

Writing for confirmation of something from Inland Revenue or indeed the Home Office can also result in acceptable documentation.

Time for thinking caps I guess.... Good luck.

No water supply payments. On the island, if one rents, then the landlord pays the council tax and water rates (which is good - but not in this instance)

Like you say, thinking caps on..........
