On the application form for form for 'indefinite leave to remain' it says you need Either (ESOL) “Skills for Lifeâ€

You don't need both, but if you took the ESOL option the course must have included Citizen's content, you need an ESOL pass certificate and a letter from the college stating that you progressed from one ESOL level to the next. This has been in place for over 3 years.

Not all of the ESOL Skills for Life courses do. You need this to be specifically stated in the certificate and college letter.

It also says the life in uk test is only for people with ESOL level 3 or higher, does that mean you have to proove that you have Level 3 qualification, coz it doesnt for any proof on the form.

Not at all. My husband was only at ESOL level 1, and the course was taking so long he managed to pass the Life in the UK test. He listened to the test through headphones while reading the questions on the screen.
Made it easier.
