Your checklist

Have you got everything you need?

[ ✔ ] a passport photo

[ ✔ ] a copy of my passport or other photo ID

[ ✔ ] proof of address

Your card will be issued within 15 days and sent to the address provided.

Tips

1. It's a good idea to write in capital letters so it’s easy to read, except for your email address and signature.

2. For dates, in the UK we usually write them DD/MM/YYYY (day-month-year). So, for 1 September 2018 you write 01/09/2018. In the United States it is MM/DD/YYYY so you write 09/01/2018.

3. If you don't understand every word on the form, don't panic. You can probably guess what information you need to write. Ask someone for help if you need to.

Frankly I don´t remember the last time I filled a form. It was probably when I traveled to Chile last year and had to fill some forms at the airport and at the check-in in the hotel in Santiago

It was the last year. I filled an application form for the national library in Lima-Peru. It was great, fast and easy. The national library in Lima is very beautiful, big inside. They had a machine and my card was ready in 2 minutes after filled the form.

I am always filling out some forms: for phone apllications or to create a website account. In most cases when you are a registered member or an account owner you have an access to more information and you can take more actions on the website.

I don't remember the last time that I filled in a form. Usually, I filled in a form on the online website for different issues, for example, new websites, games, job applications, etc.
