Referee Declarations

Post by seige » Mon Sep 16, 2019 1:17 pm

Hi All,

I'm sure this question has been asked somewhere here before, but I can't seem to find a clear answer, so apologies in advance if I've missed it somewhere.

I'm applying for naturalisation after obtaining ILR, and on the basis of being married to a UK citizen, and having been in the country for at least 3 years. This is an online application, through UKVCAS.

My question:
1) Do BOTH referees need to sign TWO declarations, i.e. they countersign for each other? That seems strange (but is what the the gov.uk application website said) "You must download a copy of the referee declaration form. You must have both copies signed by both of your referees and include them when you provide your documents."

Many thanks in advance!

Two forms and each referee signs one each.

Thanks very much for the speedy response! I'll ignore the odd wording on the gov.uk website and do the sensible thing then. Cheers!
