It can be any date before the date on which you apply. There is a lot of confusion over this.
I advised a friend to get the referees to sign two copies of that page. One with a date and one without a date just in case any query popped up.
Ensure the rules for referees are met
a) One a British citizen professional or aged over 25
b) Two any commonwealth professional (from the list of approved professions- I have posted elsewhere).
both should have known you for 3 years.
Important some of them scribble while filling up the long page. It should be in black ink and ALL CAPS. Try to make sure this is done properly.
