WELCOME TO THE CITIZEN PORTAL

If you have used the Citizen Portal to make an application in the past, please check that your address, telephone number, etc. in the 'My account' section are still correct, and update them if they are not, before you make your new application.

If you are helping a friend/family member to apply, please ensure the parent's details (name, address, phone number, email address, etc.) are given in the 'My account' section, not yours. The parent needs to be present when the application is submitted to confirm that they have parental responsibility for the child and that all the details submitted are correct.
