One of the easiest ways to prove your identity is by presenting your driver licence (if it confirms your residential address) and your Passport.
Alternatively, there are other ways to prove your identity.
3. Proof that you're eligible to apply
Both parties to the registered domestic or caring relationship need to apply.
If you're applying on your own
You'll need to provide a copy of written notice you’ve given Partner 2 of your intent to revoke the relationship. Copy of written notice includes a screen shot of an email or text message to Partner 2.
If you can’t notify Partner 2 due to fears for your safety or wellbeing, complete a statutory declaration (External link) explaining your concerns.
