    You need to bring your pps card with you along with your passport.
    Do you have any info from the tax office in the uk - did you pay tax in the uk?
    You need to show the dole office where you were working since you last signed on. I would explain that you worked in the uk on a self employed basis for a uk company who are now bankrupt. From what I know the dole can check up with the uk revenue in regards to your working in the uk.
    Bring all the information you have in regards to when you lived in the uk.
    At this stage you need to sort yourself out with an address that you can give to the dole office. They may call to this address to confirm you are living here.
    Can you get someone your staying with give you a letter to say you are staying there at the moment. The dole will use this address to send out notification of when you have to sign ect.
