How to use a newly purchased house as a proof of accommodation in the UK if my name is not on the deed yet? - Opened carton boxes and stacked books placed on shabby wooden desk with tape against white wall

My parents are planning to visit us in the UK and we are in the process of getting all the documentation for the visa application. However I need a bit of advice regarding the accommodation proof that has to be included with the application.

We have just bought a 4-bed house this month, unfortunately I was advised by mu solicitor that the land registry document which shows our ownership in the property could take up to 3 months. We are planning to submit the application next month. At this point I am not sure what can we submit as an accommodation proof.



Best Answer

A simple statement should be enough, essentially an invitation letter, saying your parents will visit you in your home (note the address), a private property, during a specified time period (note the dates), and that there is enough room.

While it is unlikely that proof of ownership is requested, Council tax addressed to you at the new address should work. If more is needed, an executed sales contract should suffice, as the property conveyance document would show the transfer to you and the date.
