Does it really matter how long ago one passed the IELTS??? One of mt friends passed his IELTS in 2003 in Pakistan before coming to UK, can he still use this certificate to apply ILR on LR basis ?
I think IELTS is valid for 2 years only.see the ink: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... -tests.pdfhappy1982 wrote:Dear members,

Hi,ssidd wrote:Hello,
I got this email which clarify this issue, Mr. Khan your suggestion was not right, Kindly correct it.
Dear Sir / Madam
Thank you for your enquiry regarding the revised knowledge of Language and Life in the UK requirement that came in to force on 28th October 2013.
We will accept a range of English language qualifications as evidence that an applicant has met the requirement to hold a B1 level speaking and listening qualification. This will help ensure that all those needing to take a test will be able to find one suitable for their needs and, so far as possible, that no one who already has an English language qualification at B1 level or above will be required to take another one.
An IELTS (International English Language Testing System) qualification awarded by Cambridge English (previously known as Cambridge ESOL), which is at a level equivalent to level B1 CEFR or above, is an acceptable qualification for the purposes of demonstrating language ability for settlement and citizenship purposes.
Please note that the 2 year validity attached to these qualifications only applies to entry clearance applications and are therefore still accepted for settlement and citizenship applications after this validity date.
Applicants will also need to show that they have passed the life in the UK test to demonstrate their knowledge of life in the UK.
Regards
Mrs C Richards

If your qualification expires
Some qualifications on the Home Office’s list will expire after 2 years.
If you’re applying for citizenship and took the test before 6 April 2015, your qualification will still be accepted even after it’s expired.
If you’re applying to settle in the UK, your expired qualification may still be accepted as proof if it was one of the following:You need to confirm your qualification with either a certificate or by checking that your results can be viewed online.
- previously accepted by the Home Office in connection with another immigration application, eg entry clearance
- awarded in the UK and is on the Ofqual register
