Can you state the date your spouse entered UK? On 5yr or 10yr route?

You can apply for ILR within 28 days of completing the 60 months in the UK, counting from the very first date of entry to the UK

ILR English certificate

Post by Haze77 » Mon Sep 25, 2023 10:21 am

Hi.

Applying for ILR through 5 year partner route.

My English certificate is level B1.1 dated April 2021 through Trinity college London.

I used this certificate to get an extension visa after my first 2.5 years.

My question is that will this be acceptable please even though it's over 2 years old?

Is level B1.1 an acceptable level please?

Many thanks in advance

Yes to both.

You can use a B1 level qualification that’s run out if both of the following are true:

it’s on the current list of recognised tests
it was accepted for another UK immigration application, for example when you got permission to enter
