Two references are required for passport renewal and cannot be your guarantor. I can’t remember who my guarantor is from my earlier passports. Is there a way to find that out?
The guarantor and references cannot be the same for this passport application. There is nothing preventing someone who has been a guarantor on a previous application being a reference for your current application.
