What document do they (whoever is going to give you an identity card) refuse to accept as proof of address but you think they should?

Utility bills or tax documents.

@Tropical_Willie Those are the ones they do accept.

@flo It’s usually things like personal letters, or magazines, or junk mail that are not acceptable. My kids school needs to see a government agency letter or document (tax letter, DMV notice) and the electric company or cable or phone bill.

@zenvelo that makes sense to me. Is there a document you find is in the list of not acceptable but really should be?

I was thinking of apartment leases, by the way.

Oh, yes, apartment leases for sure! My kid’s school asks for that too!

So, is it only the schools that ask/accept it?
