IELTS English test validity for ILR

Post by Jayjolly » Mon Jan 06, 2020 1:37 pm

Hi,

I will be applying for my ILR this year. Two questions:

1. Will I need to retake the IELTS test or will the one I used to apply for Tier 2 visa be valid?

2. Will my wife require to take an English test (she is on tier 2 dependent visa) and if so what would be the easiest one to do?

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks.

J

No if you used it before and the test and the test center are still accepted
2. Will my wife require to take an English test (she is on tier 2 dependent visa) and if so what would be the easiest one to do?
Yes. She needs to pass SELT at B1

Thanks for the reply. How will I know what test and test center is still accepted?
