Hi guys,
just thought i would post a few problems were have come across since Rhea arrived here.
They are not to bad but let me know if the same things have happened to you.
So far we have had problems opening a bank account for Rhea as the Nationwide have asked for a bill at our address with Rhea's name on it but i pay both my Gas & Electric using a card so i do not get a bill. Also my phone belongs to my employers so i do not get a bill for that also. So we are looking into other ways of getting a bill and at the moment i have ordered a Catalogue book in Rhea's name so she can get a bill for that. When i asked the lady on the phone if any other letter will do for evidence of Rhea living at our address she said "yes a bank statement would do fine" AGHH
Rhea had her interview for a National Insurance Number just today but i did not realise that she needed proof that she had signed up for 2 Job Agencies so the next interview will be next Tuesday. I remember Pete said something about a Temp N.I. number but i forget what he said so if anyone can help i will be thankful.
On a better note i phoned and asked if i would be entitled to "Working Tax Credit" and they said yes which is a good help.
John
