Mistake on application form

Hello,

Realised that I'd made a mistake when completing my wife's citizenship form, I used two referees who are related. I was somewhat distracted during this part of the application and submitted it without realising the error; only caught it when I was preparing the forms for the referees to sign.

I tried calling the immigration department but just went around in circles, it doesn't appear that the application can be amended at this stage.

She has her UKVCAS appt next week, so in the meantime I got a second (unrelated) referee to complete the form, uploaded that together with a cover letter with the referee's information and an explanation of the error.

In the opinion of the group, should this be enough to rectify the situation - or would we forfeit our application fee and be forced to apply again?


Thanks!

This should be ok as you are explaining the oversight - applicant don't get refused over a referee mix-up.
