Dear Experts,
I am planning to apply for citizenship.
I was looking at Referee part. I have seen questions in the forum about Referees but could not find similar ones or I might have missed during my search.
Q. I am looking for Engineer (With professional qualifications) part of List of acceptable professional persons.
My colleague is happy to sign/be a referee for me. He is academc engineer.He is also registered Chartered Engineer(CEng) from IET.
https://www.theiet.org/career/professio ... -engineer/
In form under Referee details, please correct me if below response needs more explaination:
Q: What is their profession? Mentioning as "Chartered Engineer (IET)"
Experts/Gurus can you guys please confirm if this is fine and CEng is part of professional qualifications.
Q: How does the referee know the applicant: "Office colleague, known since Jan XXXX". Is this sufficient or more explaination is required.
Any response in this regards is highly appreciated.
Regards,

Your referees do NOT have to write letters. You need to complete the referee form the online process gives you. That is all you need.

There is a question in online form:

So referee has to mention on how does he know the application if I am not wrong.

Yes, but no need to write a lengthy paragraph as you have stated. They simply need to state 'work colleague' or 'friend'.

Thank you. So in that case is below sufficient
Referee 1(Ex colleage)
Wife: Ex colleague wife, known since XXXX
Kid: Ex colleague kid, known since birth.
I am getting confused thinking which is the right way.
Inputs are highly appreciated.
