When could referee begin to sign the AN form

[sparks_yulu]

Dear all,

I plan to apply for the citizenship through JCAP. There is one passport requirement that photo has to be taken within a month. Since the same photo will have to be affixed to form AN, does this mean I can only ask referees to begin sign the form within a month in advance?

I planned to ask earlier if possible.

Many thanks in advance for your reply,

The AN form says "This part of the form is to be filled in by your referees once your photograph has been affixed aside as explained above." So, yes, logically you are right!

Maybe I didn't make myself clear, my question is more on if it is fine for me to ask Referees to start sign the form more than a month before?

Cheers,

Yu

A month or even two won't make a difference, however you need to ensure nothing has changed with the referees by the time you submit your application. Being practical I got all information and documents together first, filled in the form and then asked the referees to sign. But it's down to the way you organise things.
