Referees
All applicants for British citizenship must provide 2 referees to establish their identity.
You must only contact the referees if this could resolve concerns about the
application and you have the authority from a senior caseworker to do so.
You must ensure that the following requirements are met:
The referee must:
• have known the (adult) applicant for at least 3 years
• a British passport holder and either a professional person or aged over 25 (at
least one referee must be a professional person)
The referee must not:
• be related to the applicant or the other referee
• be the applicant’s representative
• be employed by the Home Office
• have been convicted of an imprisonable offence in the last 10 years for which
the sentence is not spent under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974
