Thanks Greenie - you have posted exactly what my thoughts were, but much more eloquently and concisely!Greenie wrote:If you read the information posted it is clear that the only change is the removal of a concession that those who are required to take an English language test can apply for leave to remain before they have taken the test and before they have the results. They will now need to provide the prescribed evidence they have passed the test with the application. This does not mean that a person who otherwise satisfies the English language requirement for example by having a degree taught in English will now mean they have to take a test instead. The change is only to remove uf concession as set out in the relevant sections of the policy guidance as indicted in the news item.
The change is also not relevant to those applying for ilr.

From the above notes its clearly said, people who are holding British Degree they dont need to get English test.

My Tier-1 (General) 02 years initial "Leave to Enter" is finishing on 01-Jun-2012. When I got my Tier-1 back in May 2010, at that time, I provided IELTS General Test Report and ofcourse, it is expired now. I was thinking to apply during the last week of April this year but I need an advice if I should apply before 06-Apr-2012 in case this rule comes into force without keeping in view that people like me already submitted IELTS when taking initial Leave to Enter.smartkhan wrote:131.
