Also She got a UK NARIC English Language Assessment statement which is equivalent to CEFR level B1.

Is it right?

My wife did her MBA from Pakistan and also was assessed as B1 from NARIC. I submitted the letter to Sheffield and was successful in getting her spouse visa.

Pretty straight forward - applied online and submitted both the degree certificate and the transcript (so grades achieved for each module) as a photo/scan. I got my letter confirmation a couple of weeks later.
