A BRITISH CONNEXION READER SHARES HOW HE WAS ABLE TO CREATE A GOVERNMENT GATEWAY ACCOUNT Your January/February issue highlighted problems for non-UK residents accessing the gov.uk Government
Gateway website if they do not have a UK address, driving licence, etc. Following a letter of complaint to HMRC, I was told it is still possible to create a Government Gateway account as
long as you have a biometric UK passport, National Insurance number, and access to a smartphone and UK telephone number. Download the gov.uk ‘ID Check’ app and, at the appropriate stage in
the account creation, take a picture of both the photo page in your passport and a ‘selfie’, then allow your phone to scan the microchip on the front page of your passport. This verifies
your identity and a Government Gateway account can then be created. _Connexion reader Gary Grant, by email_ RELATED ARTICLES HOW TO TOP UP YOUR UK STATE PENSION WHEN YOU LIVE IN FRANCE
