Hi, can you help:

Applying for naturalisation:

1. Do your 2 referees physically sign a reference form?

2. If so, do you scan/upload the referees form at the time of submitting the online application?

3. Can you get the referees forms signed/dated/etc before submitting your application or do they need to be dated after the date that the application is submitted?

4. What type of evidence do you have to provide to prove the 5 years residence? (I’m applying with having had tier 2 for 5 years & ILR for 12 months)

Hi, when applying for naturalisation online & scanning in passport-

1. do you scan in every page of the passport?

2. Do you have to scan in old passports if you went in/out of UK on them (before the past 5 years)?
