Re: References for online applicatiom

Re: References for online applicatiom

Okay i get it now
In the ' how does the referee know the applicant ' section, can I put ' patient' for my professional standing referee ? (My dentist). He did agree that he knows me personally etc. So im just thinking would 'patient' be enough ?

Re: References for online applicatiom

Thank you!
So if I suppy the old identity document with which i applied for SS it should be fine then. Even though it has been damaged / hole punched at the office to mark it as invalid ?

Re: References for online applicatiom

Also, as I have been granted SS in 2019 and applying for naturalisation in 2021, do I need to show the 5 year residence requirements prior to being granted SS ? Which would then make ot 2014. And i can only prove it from 2016 onwards.
Thanks
