British passport - Confirming someone’s identity

Post by juancesarvillalba » 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!!

No, you need a person working as a professional and with a UK passport.
All advice comes from personal research and experience and should not be regarded as professional opinion.
