I have a question regarding same.. As and from last Dundalk GPO have started asking people collecting SW to provide photo ID or no payment will be made. I have no photoID. The last time I had no photo ID and I wanted to set up a bank account, F.A.S sent me to the local garda barracks to get a form known as an LM10 form-I also had to supply 2 passport photos to the gardi,they issued me with this LM10 form to confirm I was who I said was. That was in 2005.
I went today to the same gardi station to ask for the same form. The guard at desk told me I needed a guard to confirm who I was.. Most of the guards in Dundalk are new and don't know me so I told that I would hang around to see if I could spot a guard I knew and he said right.. As luck would have it-about 10 minutes I spotted a special branch man who knows me from my younger days..
I explained my problem to him and he agreed to confirm who I was so next thing is-the other guard at the desk said the rules concerning LM10 forms had changed and I would have to go see my brief(lawyer) to get the same form.. Does anyone know the currant news regarding the issue of these LM10 forms.. I have applied for an irish age today but that will take at least 2 weeks to arrive.. Any help in this matter would be most welcome..
