      Hi @ridwanalam3721. Thank you very much. Hope you’re doing well too.
      One form for each referees is required. Tou need 2 referees, so you should submit 2 forms on your application.

    Hi Fritz, on the online form, what do we need to write about how referee know the applicant. How much details you think we need to enter. Is it enough to say we are colleague and we are working together etc.. what kind of personal info they looking ?

    • @ElanFritz
      @ElanFritz  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Cihan! How are you?
      My referees are also my colleagues before. I also wrote the date when I met them (just to prove that we have known each other for 2 years), and that they became my friends to the date of my application. Yours is also fine so long as they are not your relative or your solicitor.
      Good luck on your application! ☺️💯👍

      Hi Fritz,
      i have another question which confuses me as well. I came to UK in 2016 and am holder of ILR now since 2021.
      When i calculate absence, do i need to enter my absences from 2016 to 2022 from 2017 to 2022 ?
      and also 2021 which is my ILR year is not counted inside of that 5 year period 450 days, right ?
      2021 - 2022 is the year which i shouldnt have gone out of country more 90 days i guess ?

    Can you change a referee after you’ve completed the online form?

    • @ElanFritz
      @ElanFritz  Рік тому

      Hi Mimi! I hope you are doing well.
      I believe once you completed the online application and made payment you can no longer change your answers as they will be sent online. But if it is really necessary to change anything, on the the day of your appointment you can submit a cover letter citing your reason for change and give them a new referee form, so long as your referees meet all the criteria. You might want to ask the home office to confirm what is the right action to do.

      @ElanFritz  Рік тому

      Hi Dichhen. Hope everything is well.
      A pensioner or retired can fit the second referee criteria if that person is a British citizen him/herself. As he or she is already retired/pensioner that means he/she would not count as someone with professional standing. Hope this helps.
