Referee For our British citizenship application

[ilrapp2012]

Dear All,

Just few quick questions about referee.

1. Our joint application is due in last week of August, 28 or 29. Will we be ok if we get the signature from our referees now?

It will be almost 2 month early. Will this be an issue?

2. Can one of the Referee be GP and the other one Dentist? They are both professional bodies. This is what I want to check?

3. I wonder if someone can tell us, what do the dentist write in the column how do they know us? Like because we do treatment with them?

Many thanks

1. I got my referees to fill in their section of my application in August 2012 and I sent off my application in April 2013. I was slightly worried that there might be a problem but there wasn't. My application was approved.

As long your referees don't change their name or address or anything else they've written on your application between the time they fill in their section and the time you send off your application it should be fine.

2. Yes, a GP and Dentist are both professional.

3. The dentist can write that you are their patient.
