Need Some Help With An ISA Application Form.

I am unable to visit a branch to setup a new ISA with A&L and transfer my existing one into it so I am filling out this application form and I need I little help.

For step seven what evidence do I need to post off, e.g. is it a copy of my passport?

Regarding step 10 is this section sent to my exiting ISA providers and if so do I wait until my new ISA is setup with A&L in order to input the new ISA number under the 'Customer details section'.

Secondly regarding the authority section what do I need to provide as proof of investment/passbook?

Thanks in advance.

    Customer identification - Savings

    Why do we need evidence of your identity?

    To ensure we comply with the UK's Money Laundering Regulations, we will need you to provide evidence of your identity before we process your request to open an account (even though you may already hold an account with us). In the case of a joint application, identification for each applicant must be supplied.
    Certified copies of the following documents can be accepted. The same document cannot be used to confirm both your identity and your address. We need one item from Group A to confirm your identity and one item from Group B to confirm your address.

    GROUP A - Documents that identify you
    • Full Valid UK Driving Licence - Photograph or old style
    • Provisional valid Driving Licence - Photograph style only
    • Full valid UK signed Passport
    • Full valid Overseas signed Passport
    • Letter from the Department for Work and Pensions confirming eligibility to State Benefits
    • Letter from HM Revenue & Customs which shows a National Insurance Number dated within last 12 months (not P45/P60/P11D)
    • National Health Service Medical Card (UNDER 18's ONLY)
    • UK Birth Certificate (UNDER 18's ONLY)
    GROUP B - Documents that confirm your address
    • Full Valid UK Driving Licence - Photograph or old style
    • Provisional valid Driving Licence - Photograph style only
    • Utility Bill less than 6 months old - including Telephone/Gas/Electricity/Water Bill (not mobile phone)
    • Council Tax Bill/Payment Book - Valid for Current year
    • Bank or Building Society Statement less than 3 months old showing customer activity
    • Letter from the Department for Work and Pensions confirming eligibility to State Benefits
    • Letter from HM Revenue & Customs which shows a National Insurance Number dated within the last 12 months (not P45/P60/P11D)

    section 10 you give to alliance and they contact your current isa provider to get your money transferred over.
    i think passbook from your already opened isa elsewhere is ID, if they offer passbook.
    does that make sense?
