MN1 form - How long referee is known to the child

[pkumar]

Hi,

Is there any requirement in regards to minimum amount of time refree needs to be known to the child?
I have one referee (child minder) who is known for last 3 months only .. is that OK?

Thanks

How old is the child??

Page 28 of the MN1 Guide is fairly clear on the requirements.

I believe you already answered your own question.

Hi Guys, my question is somewhat related to the topic:

how long the referee needs to be a British Citizen to sign the form. - does anyone know.
Our child minder agreed to sign it for our 2 year old, but she is obtained BC less than 12 months ago.
not sure that will be an issue or not

No issue.

The referee need not have known the child for a minimum time limit. We moved to a new area and the GP and school originally refused to sign our children's application on the 3 year grounds. We showed the school the form and clarified that there is no 3 year requirement for a child (which exists for an adult). Finally they kindly agreed to sign.

Good luck
