I spoke to both my referees last year as to whether they had received anything from Firearms licencing, they both advised that they received an email only with some general information, more like an information leaflet, there was nothing to respond to or reply to. With regard to the wife having to provide a response, is this soemthing new - there was no contact details for spouses when I filled in the form last year. Just wondering whether I am missing part of the process.

In Beds/Herts/Cambs - FL send out e-mail to the referees containing a document entitled > Firearms Licence Applications - Guide for Referees <

At a later date the referees are called and asked if they have received the guide so that have 'a heads up' of the topics they should have considered regarding the applicant.
