Hi There,

I took my ILR long time back that time didn't have to write any exams and that time ILR eligibility was four years only. Now i am thinking about applying for British Citizenship, i am wondering do i have to do the exam life in the uk now.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks

Yes now you have to meet KOLL requirement by passing Life in UK test and B1 English language.

I believe they Changed it in October 2013. I'm not completetely sure about it. You will need to pass both the life in the UK test and English to apply for citizenship, unless you are under 18 and one of your parents is a British Citizen.

Read about Life in the UK Test - https://www.gov.uk/life-in-the-uk-test/overview
Do some practice tests - https://lifeintheuktests.co.uk/life-in-the-uk-test-1/
Read about English Tests - https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... uage-tests

Good luck with your application.
