What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Porth? Why is this being asked of me?
You are right in the requirement set out by your lawyer has nothing to do with conveyancing in Porth. However these days you can not complete any conveyancing transaction without first submitting proof of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence as well as a council tax bill. Remember if you are supplying your driving licence as evidence of ID it needs to be both the paper element as well as the photo card part, one is not sufficient without the other.
Proof of the origin of monies is mandated under Money Laundering Regulations. You should not be offended when you are asked to produce this as your conveyancing solicitor will need to retain this information on file. Your Porth conveyancing lawyer will need to see evidence of proof of funds before they are able to accept any money from you into their client account and they should also ask further queries concerning the origin of monies.
