When completing your online form, one of the first steps will be to provide your full name history. 



This section only requires you to provide us with legal names. You don't need to provide any names you did not legally change to (for example, nicknames).


This will need to cover your entire life. 


To begin with, you'll need to provide your full current name. 

Current Name
If you previously completed the Digital ID section (where you were asked to scan your ID documents) this will likely already be pre-populated for you, and you'll not be able to edit this.


Next, you'll need to select whether you've been known by any previous names. 


Any other names since birth?

By clicking yes, you'll now be prompted to provide the date from which you changed to your current name. 


Date
Additionally, you'll have the option to add any previous names below this. 


Previous Names

Similar to how you added your current name, you'll need to add the full previous name, along with the date you started using this name and the date you stopped using this name.


To add any further names, you'll need to click '+ Add another name' and follow the same steps. 

Please ensure that you have provided all of your previous names, from birth to current. 


The form will not allow any gaps between these names, so you'll need to ensure that the dates are in a timeline order. 

We recommend adding these in order, to help avoid any mistakes. 


Whilst we have taken care to ensure that this information is accurate, we update articles regularly. If you feel something is incorrect, please use the feedback buttons below to tell us how we could improve.
