English language requirment

Post by seekit » Wed Jan 14, 2009 4:59 pm

Hi,

I am on HSMP which was granted in April 2007 and i'll be going to apply for my extension soon as a tier 1.

I had passed IELTS, when I first launched my HSMP application which is expired now as valid for 1 year only. Can anyone please let me know if I need to pass IELTS again?

Cheers

Seekit,
I would suggest you to read the guidance notes point # 172

Hope that answers your question.

Cheers
PG
