  2. Save the application form on your computer.

  3. Send the application form to the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) using the service to apply for IVA.

  4. Pay the application fee by credit or debit card (DVSA will tell you how to do this after youve applied), or using a pre-funded account.
