Problem with identification

Locornwall

I have been asked at late notice to provide additional identification. This is because my identification does not include my middle name. I am struggling to think what I can use apart from my birth certificate, which I’m not sure where it is, as most things are in storage.

Any suggestions?

Certificates cost £11 and are sent 4 days after you apply.
If you do not have a GRO index reference number, you’ll have to pay £3 extra for each search. Certificates are sent 15 working days after you apply.
If you need the certificate sooner, you can use the priority service for £35. It’ll be sent the next working day if you order by 4pm.

Assuming you are UK by birth then just order a new birth certificate online, ask for fast track (costs more), and have it with you within a week.

Or tell whoever you're dealing with to get a grip, as it's perfectly normal for people not to use their middle names for all purposes.

Thank you.

If you born in the UK approach the council responsible for the registration office on your birth certificate if you want the speediest response.

The link sevenhills posted has a next day dispatch option. I can’t speak for every local council but I’m pretty sure mine wouldn’t be quite so efficient.
