Applying for Citizenship (Naturalisation)
« on: February 09, 2022, 08:57:50 AM »
Hi,

Hope everyone is doing well. I am in the process of applying for my citizenship. In the referee section they are asking for one to atleast be a professional.

I wanted to ask if someone who works in a well recognised bank considered professional?

The role of the individual is an : recoveries assistant manager.

Thank you
