Your FAQ

Question: I have received a form for a 2nd property that I own, but which is currently empty. What should I do?

Answer: If a property is empty then the owner cannot be residing at the address, and so should not be registered.
Please cross out any pre-printed names and tick the box in section 3 to show that the property is empty before signing, dating and returning the form.
