Hello Guru's and fellows,

I am applying for British citizenship after 10 years + 1 year ILR. I have got couple of questions below;

1. Referees, is it important to give one professional and one social reference? Or ca we use both professional or both social contacts?


2. Secondly when getting documents check list one of the required document mentioned as "proof of freedom from immigration time restrictions" Does it mean ILR BRP or something else?

Thank you and kindest regards in advance.

1. As stated almost daily, it is a mandatory requirement to have one referee who is a professional in the ho list and can be any nationality. The other referee just be British and over 25. Note that it is the referees profession that is required, not someone who you only deal with in a professional capacity.

2. Yes, ilr brp.

Dear CR001

Many thanks as always the answers, have one more question please;

HO is asking about 10 years employment history, i dont have all 10 years records. I have first 2 yeras and then one year i didnt work for 18 months and then i have rest of the records. Will it make any difference to the application;

and lastly when i looked online at HMRC website i have 10 years of NI contribution available but some years are not fully contributed, will it make any difference to application?

Thank you

1. Simply list your employment. A gap is not an issue.

2. No.

2. No.

Do we have to list all of the employment history or going back 4-5 years is fine?
