Knowledge of English
You may need to prove your knowledge of the English language when you apply.
You can prove your knowledge of English by either:
passing an approved English language test with at least CEFR level B1 in reading, writing, speaking and listening
having an academic qualification that was taught in English and is recognised by UK NARIC as being equivalent to a UK bachelor’s degree, master’s degree or PhD
You may be able to meet the English language requirement in other ways or need a higher level of English in some circumstances. Check the full visa guidance for detailed information.
Exceptions
You will not need to prove your knowledge of English if you’re a national of one of the following countries:
Antigua and Barbuda
Australia
the Bahamas
Barbados
Belize
Canada
Dominica
Grenada
Guyana
Jamaica
New Zealand
St Kitts and Nevis
St Lucia
St Vincent and the Grenadines
Trinidad and Tobago
USA
You also may not have to prove your knowledge of English in other circumstances - check the visa guidance.
You need to do an approved test from an approved test provider, as per the list in the link below. I would strongly suggest you do NOT do the academic tests for a tier 2 visa.xor83 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 27, 2020 8:10 pmCan you please tell me which test should I pick from here?

PTE Academic UKVI?
Useful to state that it must be a test done at a set centre and not the online test, which is not accepted for UK visas.
