Masters degree is not accepeted, only Bachelors because UK NARIC can only verify bachelors degree!angelica salazar wrote:I will submit an application as fiance very soon,, but with all the english test requirement changes i´m a bit confused. I´m wondering if my MA degree in MArketing Communications granted by London Metropolitan University in 2008 is enough for me to probe that my english is good enoguh to apply as a fiance of a British citizen.?
Also at the time I presented my IELTS test to gain entry to gain entry in the Uni and my score was 6.0 and I still have got the results, could I show this result even if it´s back from 2007?
Your help will be much appreciated!
Regards, A
UKBA states we will not accept Masters on their website for PARTNERS! and link is in the above reply!John wrote:Why would you think that? Surely the important words are "at least a bachelor´s degree", and your degree is higher than a BA, and therefore it is by definition "at least a bachelor´s degree".Does this mean my MA degree is not included in the list of those valid degrees?

My visa application is for fianceé visa from outside the UK , and with the current flight booking and appointment timeline I wont have the chance to present the ielts exam again as I did 4 years ago to gain entry to the University.
Sorry but this is so confusing! thanks!

Reading the following may help:terriblescream wrote:You would not require an ENGLISH test for a fiance visa but once you get married and apply for SPOUSE visa you will be required, you could do this from the UK!
SET17.2 The requirement applies to those applying for entry clearance under which categories? wrote:Settlement: Part 8 of the Immigration Rules;
paragraphs:
SET17.3 How does the applicant satisfy the requirement? wrote:- By passing a test with an approved provider; or
- by having a degree taught in English including masters degree and PhDs
- Any masters degree or PhD obtained in the UK
- Any masters degree or PhD obtained in one of our list of majority English speaking countries

Any masters degree or PhD not obtained in the UK or a majority English speaking country which UK NARIC can verify was taught in English or can be verified by other evidence by being a citizen or national of a majority English language speaking country (which is specified in the relevant Immigration Rule)
