Evidence Type: Proof of Ownership
In all cases, proof of dwelling ownership must be submitted. An acceptable proof of ownership document is a Council Rates Notice or Title Deed.
The owner name recorded in the dwelling enrolment application must match the ownership document submitted. For example, if the dwelling is owned by a company, the owner name recorded in the application must be the company name, not the name of a company representative.

The letter must state two things:
1. the SDA provider has their permission to enrol the dwelling; and
2. the owner will not separately apply to enrol the dwelling.
The letter must be signed by the dwelling owner/s as identified in the ownership document/s submitted.
If the owner is a legal entity such as a company, trust or similar, the letter of permission can be signed by an authorised representative of the legal entity. The letter of permission must be accompanied by evidence that the signing individual is an authorised representative of the legal entity, for example an ASIC extract.
