Application Date for Citizenship after ILR

Hi,
I completed the online forms for myself and my family. We have to wait until end of next week for submission.
My questions are;
1. Can I download the Referee forms and get them signed by the Referees this week before the application submission?
2. Should I print the two pages Referee forms as one sided or double-sided (front&back) on a single sheet of paper.

Thanks

1. Yes
2. Print the form on two separate sheets. Both pages have to be uploaded later to the UKVCAS system

Thank you Zimba.

One more question and sorry if this sounds silly;
According to the Referee forms, we have to write our names and date of birth on the back of the photos and glue them on the Referee forms. How should we glue them? If we completely glue the photos on the forms then they're not gonna be seen anyways. what's the point of writing names & DoBs on the back.

Thanks again for your help.

This was also puzzling to me last month when I applied. What I did was that I wrote our names and dates of birth on the back of our photos, at the very top, then put glue at the centre of the photo's back then glued it in place.

Next day I checked the photos and they were nicely attached and secured to the form, but the names were still readable if the photo were lifted slightly from the top. Couldn't do it any differently.

No need to do it. All forms are now should be scanned and the actual forms are not taken. No need to write your names on the back of the photos

Hi,
If we have received ILR on the 11/06/2018 and been in the country for more than 5 years, are we eligible to apply for citizenship on the 11/06/2019? Or, should we do it on the 12th?
Thanks

For the sake of one day apply on the 12th. Date of application is the date you submit and pay online.

You also need to make sure you were physically present in the UK on the exact same date 5 years ago.
