Dear all,


1) When filling the referee section do we need to explicitly state one referee as a Professional referee an the 2nd referee as a Britisih National over 25 years age?

2) One of my referee filled the section using small letters which i noticed later. Will that cause a problem.
I have not submitted the application yet. Should i ask him to fill the section again using BLOCK letters?


Thank you

1. Your referees need to state how or in what capacity they know you, i.e. friend or work colleague or manager etc.

2. Makes no difference as long as the referees have completed the relevant part of the form and not you.

Hi,


Many thanks for the response.

1) Both i know as friends 6+ years. They just stated as " Friend". Is that enough?
The non professional referee is my manager as well in my work place.
But i have informed them if HO request information to reveal that he is my manager as well.

2) Do they need to specify the number of years that they know in the form

3) For my wife's application i'm using the same 2 as referees. Relationship was stated as Friend's wife.
Is that OK. They know my wife 4+ years as we always get together in parties/trips etc..

Thanks you so much

1. The professional referee should ideally state 'manager and friend'. Question 5.2 and 5.10 states clearly what they need to write.

2. It doesn't ask but they should know you for at least 3 years.

3. Stating 'friend' is fine.

Hi,

The "manager" is a the 2nd referee I adding as the British National who is over 25 years so writing Friend is OK isnt it?

The Professional referee is the Company Director/Owner. So should I ask him to write as Friend and Company Director/Owner and for my wife's application as Friend's wife or Family Friend.


Cheers
