Hi all dear member.
My question is for my partner's application form. Thanks God, I got my certificate last month.
As I have prepared his documents a while ago and just today submitted his application, the date on his referees' forms are for the beginning of March, so 3 months ago! is this a problem?
can I go ahead and upload those form or is it better to get a new form signed?
Also, the UKVCAS website shows he may be eligible for IDV app. in terms of the processing time, is it better to go for it or book an in person appointment?
Highly appreciate your help.
Thanks

I first submitted my partner's application on January 30th. For a number of reasons, I chose to withdrew it; then applied again on March 28th. I used the same referee forms, dated end of January. No issue. He had his approval email last week.

If you have time on your hands and you fancy doing it all over again, nothing stopping you.

It is not up to you to choose. You have to go for whatever method they tell you to go.
