charter school prove of address

[vanessa520]

Hi guys, just a quick question. My daughter has been accepted into charter for sep, problem is I live with my partners dad who pays all the bills so I have nothing in my name apart from bank statements and child benefit letters. There asking for a council tax bill to be in the same name as child benefit letter, as prove of address but the council tax bills in my partners dads name. Any advice pls. Thanks

Probably best to check with the school.

Yes, check with the school - but if you have child benefit & bank statements in your name, to the same address the council tax bill is paid for, then that sounds promising towards proving it is your sole address.

I expect they have put checks in place to stop people renting second homes in catchment, but I'm sure they wouldn't want to discriminate against people who genuinely do live where they say they do.
