application for naturalisation as a british citizen

[stevewool]

we are going for this hopefully very early next month, this means Ems has been in this country just over the 3 year period, she landed july 29th 2010, how time goes by very quickly,
Anyway back to what i am asking, in the form AN section 5 REFEREES AND IDENTITY, it state one person should have a professional standing and it list a few but it also states that this person should have known Ems for at least 3 years, can anyone help in this matter, or point me in the right direction, the second referee is no problem hes a work colleague,

Not sure if Emma is a churchgoer, but many folks choose that as a starting point.

Or Doctor. That's also a popular chooice. (Doesn't need to be a GP or even Medical)

Yes Steve as Peter says, ask your doctor also my suggestion would be Bank Manager or one of the nurses at Em's work!
