Hi - I am selling my sole property and want to know do I have to prove that I was living in the house?
 
Re: selling house

Who do you have to prove it to? A household bill in your name?
 
Re: selling house

I'm guessing that it's to prove it was your PPR so as not to be liable for CGT? You let your solicitor know and sign accordingly.
You only have to furnish proof if investigated later.

Presume you mean Capital Gains Tax, not Stamp Duty. Capital gains is due on the sale of an investment property but not on your PPR. Don't see why you would need proof if it is your PPR but a bill or two should do the trick.
