British passport - Confirming someone’s identity
Posted: Sat Jul 13, 2024 8:30 pm
Hi, I am applying for my first British passport and living in the UK, I have my naturalisation certificate.
The requirements to confirm someone identity for the passport are as below:
-be 18 or older and work in or be retired from a recognised profession
You must also be either:
a current UK passport holder living in the UK - if the applicant lives in and is applying from the UK
a current UK, Irish or other EU, US or Commonwealth passport holder - if the applicant lives and is applying from outside the UK
If you’re not a UK or Irish passport holder it will take longer for us to process the application.
For my naturalisation my referees were one a UK passport holder and the other a Nurse (without UK passport).
Now I am strugling to find one that has both the UK passport and also the recognised profession.
Is there another way that someone can confirm my identity?
Thanks!!
