• We would recommend that Forms A and B are emailed to the diocese in order to enable us to process applications more speedily.
• We also advise applicants to check with their referees that they have returned Form B to the diocese.  Applications cannot be processed without a reference.
• It would also be helpful to priests and other referees if applicants completed the first section of Form B i.e. entering their name, address, details of the post applied for, closing date and Diocesan contact.  This will minimise the possibility of a delay in the referee submitting the reference.
• On receiving your application by email, you will receive an acknowledgement message with further information about what to do if you have not received Approval prior to interview for the post.
