We are aware of and investigating an intermittent problem with the DVA Document Checking Service.

The issue is manifesting itself as intermittent dropped connections between DCS and DVA resulting in users being unable to verify using DVA driving licence document but users can sign-in to existing account

DCS and DVA teams are looking into this as a matter of urgency and we will update you as soon as we know more.
