Hi everybody, I will apply for my British Citizenship soon, however one thing I am not sure about it, ok my doubt about:

I ve got two referees they are both British Citizen and they know me at least more than 5 years and they are both professional as a VAT registered Company director and general manager, but one of them he is 23 years old

my question is, is he eligible (23 years old one but he is a company director) as a referee?

Thank you very much

thank you for the link yes it says:

6.3.7.5 The other referee must be the holder of a British citizen
passport and either a professional person or over the age of
25.

so my 23 years old referee will be fine according this paragraph because he s fall under: either a professional person so his age dosent matter am I right ?

Thanks
