Your IELTS from 2006 should do just fine.

The advice given on the forum is correct. You dont need to provide any visa/brp for the child. You will need to provide your ILR proof and your child's birth certificate. I was in exactly the same situation last year and got approval without any issues. I used NCS but that was purely because I wante...

I was in a similar dilemma last year but long story short you are worrying for no reason. I take it that your child is around 3-4 years old, just get whatever reference you can and it will be OK. They are not very strict about references for young children. It is more like a formality at this age. F...

you will also have to provide proof of your qualification.

Hi Gurus, May I request you to help me which form to choose. 1. I got my ILR in May 2014, through 5 yrs Tier 1 General route - I need to apply for Naturalisation first (AN form) then British Passport You will need to wait till May 2015 before you can apply 2. My child born in India (now 3 yrs) also...

Never heard of ESB so I dont know about ESB in particular but you can check if it is on the following list, if it is then it is acceptable.

Thanks a lot guys.

As mentioned ESOL Entry 3 for BC However the qualification for ESOL skills for life entry 3 offered by Trinity has been removed from the Home Office list of acceptable qualifications effective from 1st August 2014. This qualification will no longer be accepted. Only the ESOL entry 3 offered by Camb...

I have just received the passport-printing SMS from the Pasport Office (next morning after my interview). Tomorrow is a Saturday. Does anyone know whether they deliver passports on Saturdays? I would not want to miss the delivery (and then arrange and wait for a re-delivery), but I don't want to st...

Thank you very much CR001.

There is nothing like wasting my time. Your statement that there is no topic on this was so odd that i had to write. Coming to the topic, this is the rule for ESOL Qualifications in English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) at Entry level 3, Level 1 or Level 2, that include speaking and listen...

anyone?? plz.

Thanks for the reply. Is there a difference between "medium of instruction letter" and "letter for degree taught in english"?

I am applying as spouse of a British Citizen. I have an appointment tomorrow, I am getting confused about the documents needed to prove english language. I have an MSc degree from outside of UK. I have a "medium of instruction" letter from the university too. The point based calculator giv...

I am having exactly the same confusion - can someone who knows please reply.

Hi folks, I sent my application using check and send on 26/03/2014. I am still waiting for the interview letter. From various timelines on the forum I can see that mine is a bit overdue now.
Is there a number I can call to check progress??? what if the letter is lost in transit???

I went to NCS today to submit my naturalization application. I presented all my previous passports but the lady over there said I only need the ones covering the last 5 years (i.e. the 5 years qualifying period). So basically she took only two of them and did not send the third one. Can someone plea...
