2. 10 points will only be awarded if the applicant:
(a) has the level of English language shown in the table below and:
(i) provides an original English language test certificate from an English language test provider approved by the Secretary of State for these purposes, which clearly shows the applicant's name; the qualification obtained (which must meet or exceed the level shown in the table below); and the date of the award, or
(ii) has obtained an academic qualification (not a professional or vocational qualification) which is deemed by UK NARIC to meet or exceed the recognised standard of a Bachelor's or Master's degree or a PhD in the UK, and which UK NARIC has confirmed was taught or researched in English to the level indicated in the table below, and provides the specified documents, or

I was in the same situation as you were. Here is what i did, even my MCA gave me points for english.
But in the Cover letter i said that, though i am getting points for english, but however am still attaching my Bsc degree certificaties along with the university english letter for further clarity.
So, send both the doucments, Bsc as well as MCA for english..

As your masters degree is accepted by the english language section of the tool, you are ok to use the same masters degree for the qualifications and english requirement as it says clrealy on the UKBA guidance notes that "There are three ways that you can score points for English language. You can:
1. be a national of a majority English speaking country; or
2. pass an English language test on our list of approved English language tests (PDF 44K opens in new window); or
3. hold a degree assessed by UK NARIC as being taught in English and is equivalent to a United Kingdom bachelor's degree or above. "
Hope this helps

Where does it say that one should only check his bachelor qualification for english requirements??Tier 1 policy guidance ver 06/08 wrote:199. Applicants should check their qualification by referring to the points-based calculator on our
website at: http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/worki ... ssessment/.
200. Where the points-based calculator is unable to confirm these details, points will not be awarded for the qualification in question.
Don't misconstrue the essence of the text highlighted in blue as meaning *bachelor degree only*.Tier 1 policy guidance ver 06/08 wrote:195. The qualifi cation must:
• be recognised by UK NARIC as equivalent to at least a United Kingdom bachelor’s degree; and

I completely Agree with Mr Mehta and as i have mentioned in my earlier post today just submit your MCA degree as a proof for qualification and english requirement and you should be fine. dnt confuse them by sending two different degree's. atleast thats my opinion, rest is upto you my friend.rajesh9pl wrote:UKBA notes on English language Requirement-

There are three ways that you can score points for English language. You can:
1. be a national of a majority English speaking country; or
2. pass an English language test on our list of approved English language tests (PDF 44K opens in new window); or
3. hold a degree assessed by UK NARIC as being taught in English and is equivalent to a United Kingdom bachelor's degree or above.
If your Bachleor's degree (Country, State, University and the degree course) is listed on Assessment tool then you will be entitled for meeting this requirement.
I don't think 'or above' here means Maters or PhD.
