Electoral roll and mortgage application

Options
Hello, I’m currently renting and was looking to apply for a mortgage now. I registered with the council when I moved in October 2019 and thought this included the electrol roll but it didn’t. I wrote the the council in April and I’m now going on the roll on the 1st June. Will the fact I haven’t been on it for eight months be a problem or will it be an issue I’m newly on the register?
my credit file is otherwise totally clear. Apart from a late cc payment in June 2019.
im excepting the electric roll info will show on my Experian mid June.

    You might need to provide extra proof of ID and absolute worst case scenario your tenancy agreement.

    Usually with mortgages there's greater opportunity to discuss things with an underwriter.
