    Approved Referees for British Citizenship Application

    Can anyone give me a link to the current list of professional occupations required regarding referees/references needed to sign the British Citizenship application form?

    I'm assuming that 'Dentist' is still on the list??

    Many thanks,
    NS

    Many thanks for the link, that's great!
    Still, we're having to think really hard who fits into the categories and who have also known my wife personally for three years….

    Thanks again, much appreciated

    We just managed to get a second referee yesterday, the thing we found difficult was finding someone who knew my wife for at least three years who was in a professional position, with regard to Doctors they only remain at our surgery for approx six months or a year at most, in the end we got our landlord and also the lady who is a director of the estate agent that we rent our property with to act as referees!

    Yes, I agree. The three years stipulation is not quite as easy as first it appears...

    For those doing Citizenship Application you'll find if you've done IELTS English test that there is no reference number on your Certificate so leave the section asking for IELTS ref number blank, according to Checking Service it will be fine!

    Thanks for this Michael. Although in the AN form, if the applicant's test was taken before 6 April 2015, the choices for the test providers are just the ones below.



    I took my test in IDP Philippines last 2011 (which is still one of the 2 approved test centres in the Philippines). How can I put that in the form? Below is what it says on my test result.




    I hope someone can clarify this to me.
