Tier 1 general rejected - ACCA Qualification

Hi

A friend of mine has been refused Tier 1 general (out of country application) on the ground that she is an ACCA affiliate.

Although NARIC do not provide confirmation of ACCA qualification, she has a letter from ACCA stating that ACCA qualification is equivalent to Masters degree and she claimed 35 points but they refuse to give 35 points on ACCA.

Could anyone advise on this issue.

Thanks.

This should be a mistake I have just gone to the calculator on the Ukba website, it dose score 35 points member/affilate . I guess your friend should apply for admin review and attach the points calcultor as reference.

Thanks.

She had an admin review and they refused again on the same ground.

but she has been given another chance for admin review.

The only thing I saw is that from the points calculator you can not claim the english points from the Acca qualification.

Is this a new development? I'm pretty sure English Language points were awarded for an ACCA in the past... might be a recent development.
