IVA Application
Getting all my stuff together for IVA application. After four years of building I've got hundreds of receipts and photos. Has anyone just sent
copies of everything on a CD? Or do they need hard copies?
There will be more questions to come .

IVA wont need any reciepts, just a few photos of any where they cant see or to prove works been done thats painted or covered etc.
Save the reciepts for registration.

Just applied for mine, all I sent was a selection of copied and signed invoices and a selection of pics on a cd. I had no problems with what I sent
and my IVA is a week next Thursday.
Good luck!

Confused. The Application form asks for receipts and photos (Section 7)

For IVA application they want copies of reciepts for major components and photos in various stages of build to show you built it.
At the IVA test they might want photos of things they can't easily see (like seat belt anchorages) to save asking you to remove stuff.
They'll also want proofofengine age if pre'Sept'95. And certification for some hoses (fuel filler + brake res'...).
Some people have sent a CD of photos and thats been OK, but I think the reciepts have to be hard copies. Either VOSA or DVLA require the originals
and not copies but I can'tremember which.

I would assume its where theyre request them for evidence of where a rebuilt vehicle is being IVA's
(see guidance notes Section 3-S)
No receipts are requested any where else in the guidance.

It's for the self-built declaration from what I remember.
I sent copies of reciepts for the major items (about 6 - kit from Dax, some engine work, some donor bits), and about 8 photos on a cd of some build
milestones (bare chassis in garage, engine coming out of donor, going into chassis, chassis on wheels, completed car). Got the CD back a few weeks
later.
It's a person at the other end and they're not going to wade through a thousand bits of paper work - just send them the important main
bits.
For IVA itself I took a laptop with hundreds of photos on, which did come in useful when he wanted to look at the fuel tank earth etc which was rather
hard to get at - he was happy to look at a few photos.

For my initial application I sent the forms and a few reciepts of the major items, chassis bodywork, donor, suspension, steering ect.
Once you have sent the forms off, apply for a v55/5 (or4) as this takes two weeks to arrive.
This is my iva time line so far:
1st May Forms posted special delivery
8th paid for test and applied for v55/5
19th v55/5 arrived in the post
22nd recieved an email from vosa. I phoned the test centre and later that day got a date of 6th june.

For the IVA application, I sent a CD with build photos and also photocopies of receipts that I signed to certify them as true copies (there is
guidance somewhere that asks you to do that if your not sending original receipts) as I wanted to keep the originals. I didn't get the copies
of the receipts back, but they did send the CD back.
For the test itself, I took my laptop in case they wanted to look at any photo's of hard to see parts on the finished car, plus the hard copies
of the receipts plus evidence of the engine revs at peak power (so that they had a record of what revs to test the noise at - important for me because
I got it wrong on the IVA application form - doh). The only thing that they looked at was the peak power evidence.
For DVLA registration, I have sent original receipts (their guidance says that they will not accept copies) and the same CD with a Word copy of the
build manual added as DVLA also seem to want build plans to show that its a self build. All sent registered post as they have a reputation for
loosing the application and then claiming it never arrived. Still waiting for a response, which is due next week according to their own performance
indicator.
