Only one applicants needs to qualify and only have to provide one of the documentation stated below:

2a. Documents needed to prove local residency:

• Electoral roll information: This information can be obtained from the Electoral Registration Department of Ceredigion County Council (Tel: 01545 572035). There is a charge for this
• Letter from Doctor: Stating the time you have been registered at the practice and your address/es while registered
• Letter from School/College: If you were at school/college anytime during the ten-year period, please contact the school/college and ask for a letter stating the address and time period you were a student

2b. Documentation needed to prove key worker status

• Please provide evidence of your employment e.g. contract & job description

2c: Documentation to prove that you qualify qualifies under the carer criteria:

You will need to think about the available information to show how you satisfy each of i) to iv) below.

1. why you/your close relative need to be cared for;
2. why your close relative’s house is unsuitable for you all to live in and why it cannot be adapted or extended to make it suitable;
3. how your close relative satisfies the first part of this Rule;
4. how you are related to your close relative (brother, sister, son, daughter, parent, grandparent, nephew, niece, husband or wife including parent-child relationships arising from adoption and relationships between those living as husband and wife including same sex couples);

In relation to i) for instance, it is likely that the person needing the care (whether you or your relative) will be receiving help from Social Services and/or the National Health Service. A letter from them might help to show that you/they need to be substantially cared for.

In relation to ii), a letter from Social Services or the National Health Service might also help in explaining why the relative’s present property is unsuitable and why it cannot be adapted or extended.

In relation to iii), you will need to consider how to show that your relative satisfies the Local Person criteria.

In relation to iv), depending upon your relationship, the production of your Birth Certificate and that of your relative (e.g., parent) would show how you are related.
