Spoke to an immigration adviser today who said that you can apply as we have completed the qualifying period. Now the next headache, the ESOL and citizenship test. For her previous English test we used a company in Leicester called Learn Skills Today who offer this course http://www.lstuk.co.uk/cour...
You mention an ESOL 'test'. The ESOL option requires attendance on a UKBA approved course and the student has to prove that they have progressed from one level to the next.

My wife came here on a spouse visa in 2009. After struggling with the Life In UK test we extended her visa in May 2012 where she did the biometric registration and received a Residence Permit card valid until May 2014. I would like to apply for SET M before October as I noticed that after then you h...
After several attempts the wife who is applying for ILR is really struggling to pass the Life In The UK test. AFAIK you can take an ESOL test as an alternative but I have no idea of where she can do a course or who to contact to find out. Does anyone have any pointers for UKBA accredited places/cour...
Test passed and now just waiting for certificate. Wifey received a pass notification on the day.
Does anyone know if they accept these as proof of a pass until you get the certificate?
A bit hesitant to send it straight off as we were told its a bit of a problem if it goes missing.
Ok, we received a letter from UKBA today stating that if we didnt get in touch by the 7th of May with the required English language pass certificate that the application will be assessed on the documents submitted. i.e the exact same letter we were given when we applied stating the same, send the d...

Was I wrong in assuming you were applying for FLR due to not passing the KOL test for ILR? "I got confused between having to have a life in the uk pass and applyingfor an extension on the basis she hadnt passed it yet" No, thats our situation exactly. We've now had news from her family th...
Trinity College London took me 4 weeks to get an ESOL certificate. Here is a link of other colleges. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/new-approved-english-tests.pdf Thanks but the problem is we only have 2 weeks to pass the test and get the certificate to UKBA. You can...
If her English is fluent, why doesn't she attempt the KOL test? She may just have time for this, assuming she's studied the questions. As others have said it wouldnt help as thats only used for ILR, for an extension you have to have the English requirement. Odd really but thems the rules. We're pre...
