If you are not married to a British citizen, then you have to wait till you have 1 full year on ILR.

there is no 'general' link.

It is part of the application process once you have booked your UKCVAS Sopra Steria appointment. You upload to UKCVAS website!

There is a referee section you have to complete. Once you have finished the form, you get the option to download.

In fact, you can get referee forms in advance, before submitting application - they are blank firms anyway (you do not get forms with you referees data already put on in!)
Here:

https://visas-immigration.service.gov.u ... on_MN1.pdf

Referees can sign before or after you submit applications.
After submitting tour application you will gave to upload scanned references together with other supporting documents.
