Anybody waiting that long?
If you have your degree taught in English available on Tier 1 G points calculator showing 10 points or it is so verified by UK NARIC it never expires and it is equal to C1. Therefore I rather used it as 100% in spite of my IELTS, yes you had passed IELTS ( above required B1) and have been living in the UK since then but to me it could still be in the grey area as the document used itself has an expiry date of 2 years given in it, a document speaks for itself.laxani wrote:Eligibility HSMP TIER 1 5 yrs + 1 yr ILR

For ESOL have used IELTS from 2003, hope it will be fine. NCS said it will be OK.

This forum has been very helpful. Thank you to everyone. I was expecting Dec 2013 applications to have their fees debited early February 2014. Seems that the HO is now catching up after the huge backlog of previous weeks. I am now praying for the next steps. Good luck to everyone.

The fees were debited on 7th of Jan, the aknowledgement letter came a couple of days later.
My case is straightforward (Spouse of BC + ILR).
Hope this helps!
