    One of the requirement for applying for a learners permit is a proof of address.
    i am 17 so don't have any utility bills as they are in my parents name. i also don't have a bank account. so i was wondering is there any other documents or letters that i can use.
    i read from one poster on these forms that i could use the theory test cert as proof of address but i am not sure if that would work. i was also thinking maybe i could use a post office saving account book.
    Any idea if these would work or what i could use.

    Evidence of address

    Utility Bill (i.e. from your electricity/phone/gas/cable television/broadband provider). Printed online utility bills are accepted. Mobile phone bills are not acceptable
    Correspondence from an insurance company regarding an insurance policy
    Statement from Bank/Building Society/Credit Union (Statements from Store cards/catalogue companies are not acceptable)
    Letter from Department of Social Protection/Revenue
    Other official correspondence from an Irish state agency e.g. government departments; HSE; Register of Electors/Polling card; CAO; Private Residential Tenancies Board or third level college/training agency

    These documents can be no more than 6 months old at date of application

    Please note: in some cases the same document could satisfy more than one requirement e.g. an Irish/EU passport is adequate as photo ID & proof of residency entitlement; a letter to you from Revenue which shows your PPSN could be used as both proof of your address & proof of your PPSN.

    If so go to them and ask for a statement, they will have no prob giving it to you and it will have your name and address

    Contact the Dept of Social Protection/Revenue. Get them to send you out a copy of your PPS number. Official letters from them count.

    Open a bank account or credit union account. (If you are under 18, you may need one of your parents to go with you.) Get them to send you out some paper work with your name and address on it. You are nearly an adult, so you are going to need a bank account sooner rather than later.

    Your theory cert is perfectly acceptable as long as it is dated within the last six months.
