The Jefferson County application requires three references and specifies "DO NOT LIST RELATIVES". Being fairly new to Alabama I don't have lifelong friends or coworkers that I know well enough to turn to. My father-in-law and brother-in-law would gladly sign on but I wonder, do they count as relatives?
Since I may have to ask people I don't know very well for references, how worried do I need to be about their background? Say one of my references turns out to have some sort of conviction in their background that I didn't know about. Seems like that wouldn't bode well for my application being approved.
Any experience and advice would be welcomed with many thanks.
