Hi,

I'm putting in a new application for the Royal Marines and it's asking for National Insurance no, passport no, etc. My only problem is that I can only provide proof of my National Insurance no and Birth Certificate no, because my passport is out of date now and I've lost my National Health card.

Will I need to apply for a new passport and request a National Health card before I can proceed?

Thanks

Not too sure about passport but I wasn't able to get hold of my NHS card. It wasn't really an issue for my AFCO. He told me to get down the GP, which I did. You need only ask the receptionist and they can give you your NHS# on a card or something.

It was good enough for me just to have my number on a card, from my local health centre.

When it comes to the referees, is it ok to put down your current employer, even though you have only been with them for a month?

Can you request that they not be contacted until an offer has been made?

if they are a referee they will be contacted i think. nhs cards are free you get the form from your gp and then send it off. i guess you will have to fork out the dosh for the new passport

Excellent.

Does anyone know at what stage the security clearance is done?

I.e. Interview, PJFT, PRMC, etc.

mine was after the test
