The person concerned applied for a Personal Public Service (PPS) Number on 16/01/2023.  This application was referred back to the person on his MyWelfare account on 27/01/2023, with a request for further proof of his employment and address.  To date, a response to the request has not been received.

To prove his employment, the person should provide:

- A Contract of Employment signed by both parties.

or

- A letter from his employer, on headed paper, stating his date of commencing employment and employer number.  This letter must be signed by a Manager and provide the contact details for the Manager.

To prove his address, the person should provide one of the following documents:

- A property lease or tenancy agreement signed by both parties.

- A household utility bill or bank statement in his name, dated within the last three months.

- If he is living with someone else, he may provide a utility bill in their name, along with a signed declaration from them confirming his residency.

- If he is residing in an hotel, he should provide a signed letter from the Manager confirming his dates of stay. 

On receipt of the requested documents the person’s application for a PPS number will be further assessed.

I trust this clarifies the matter.
