Hi,
i have some questions on the form:
1) Referee form link - will this be shared on the online portal after the application is paid for?
2) Referee form date - what should be the date of this form - before or after the application date?
3? Question - "when did you first arrive in the UK"? - i arrived in the UK almost 9 years ago as a student - is that the date that should be on this or when i first got my Tier 2 visa
4) Have you made any previous UK immigration applications - should this include my student visa applications, previous tier 2 visa applications also? Is ILR enough?
5) Jobs in the past 10 years - i did a summer internship whilst at university for two months, and i did a student caller part time job for 6 months - does this need to be included?
6) Passport documents - does every page need to be scanned as a document or only the first two pages?
Apologies for so many questions - thank you again

1. Downloaded at the end.
2. As close to application date as possible, either side of the date.
3. The questions is pretty clear on FIRST arrival.
4. ALL applications you have made.
5. ALL jobs and employment history, paid or unpaid, for the last 10 years.
6. Biometric page and all stamped pages.

Hi all,
Just a quick check if i am providing the right documents:
Passport
Degree Certificate (for English language requirement)
My current ILR
The letter from home office confirming my indefinite leave to remain
P60's for the past 5 years plus current payslip - to confirm 5 year continuous living here
Referee declaration
Is there anything else that is required?
Many thanks

None of this is required.
For residence it is ONLY your passports covering the last 5 years and you need to upload every stamped page.
For proof of free from immigration time restrictions, it is ONLY your ILR BRP card.

Hi all,
one quick question. i have asked this form before and for the date of first entry - was suggested to use the first date of entry in the UK i.e my Tier 4 visa. however, i am currently going through my ILR application and date of first entry for that was my Tier 2 visa date .. not sure which date to use now as dont want to be inconsistent between the two forms
Thanks

Topics Merged!!!
Do NOT confuse the ILR immigration rules for the British citizens laws. They are separate and independent of each other. What is relevant to ILR is not necessarily the same or relevant to citizenship applications.
You need to state the FIRST date as already advised when you asked previously.

Great thank you!!
One last question - my two referees are:
1) British Citizen - Director of VAT Registered Company
2) British - Citizen, colleague of mine
This should satisfy the requirements right?
