    Default Competency Requirements

    Hey all

    I am going to hand in my competency application tomorrow but one thing is really throwing me off.
    Certified Proof of address.

    1. Must this be a municipal / electricity account or can I use my bank statement printed from online banking?
    2. How does one certify your proof of address? As in what is it going to be compared to?

    Reason why I ask is because I do not have a municipal account as I stay with my parents.

    The best I have is a bank statement

    Different Dfo different requirement mine accepts bank statements
    I would take as much as possible to check or go ask your Dfo.
    You don't want to take a morning off and then have to leave cause you need a different doc.

    I use my cell phone account.

    I print a colour copy and a black-n-white copy. The black-n-white copy gets certified using the colour copy as the original.

    Because bureaucracy.
