Permanent Residence Document - landlord references

Hello everyone,
Just putting together my application for a permanent residence document. I'm missing a lot of old tenancy agreements (so many years ago!). I managed to get landlord references from all the places however. Do you think they will accept these in lieu of the tenancy agreements? The official guidelines don't mention them as documents I can send but I get the feeling the ones they list are just suggestions? Any ideas?
Thanks.

Btw they all provide contact details as well.I was at University for all those years and I have my degrees and letters from the universities saying I was a student.

Sounds like you're on right track.
Don't forget proof of health insurance (CSI/EHIC) for student years.

Sadly I didn't have that, I do however I have a student Residence Certificate from 2009, I'll make a very strong case for being exempt due to transitional arrangements.
It's my only chance sadly, but seems to be valid.

Might as well pop you another question as you're knowledgeable! I'm fairly worried about not getting this PR document in time for potential Brexit. I was planning to submit a citizenship application but then they introduced this PR requirement... do you think we'll be fine/covered under transitional arrangements to keep applying for citizenship if it turns out the UK will leave? I'm frankly living in constant fear now that my time in the UK is over.

I don't know anything about that I'm afraid.
I don't expect overnight changes but that's just my feeling.
Take Switzerland for an example.
All you can do is keep on moving on.
Adapt & survive - whatever the government does with the goalposts or the deckchairs ( - on the deck of the Titanic).

The processing times for document certifying PR for EEA nationals are around 6-8 weeks at the moment, and even if we vote to leave in the
June referendum, if Cameron invokes article 50 it will take a minimum of 2 years to actually exit the EU. So I would argue that you'll get your PR document in time
As noajthan says, nothing will change overnight.
