I've been contracting for a few years and this is a first. I've had an interview, been offered and verbally accepted the contract, and filled out a ton of forms at the agencies request.
However the agent is now requesting that I go to their office to 'confirm my ID':
I need your ID verified in a <agency name removed> Office, can you please confirm which area you would like to go to and I'll arrange it.
I offered an email scan of my passport before I received the above response, bearing in my mind the nearest office is 6 miles away and so quite an inconvenience/time drain would you say the request is unreasonable?
