It’s all part of the process. We ask for “leads” to confirm you worked or lived somewhere, and leads who also are more like traditional references. If you filled out paperwork incorrectly (often due to the lack of explanation on PW of who we REALLY want, not your fault), we often need to get more people. And best to over-ask as 1) you may be hard to reach later if we need more names and 2) often your leads won’t take our calls or answer our emails and 3) the more names we have the better to get the fieldwork done properly and the case filed.
