ILR Tier 1 Gen.- Degree taught in English

[Ruthlessking]

Hi,
I am about to apply for my ILR next month and have been on Tier 1 Genral category visa so far. The KOLL category dictates that I need to get a NARIC letter + a letter from my University. So far the PBS calculator had been sufficient for my English language requirements however this new rule changes everything. In the guidance section its stated somewhere that I can still use a PBS calculator output however the calculator is offline so not sure where to go


Now I do have an old NARIC letter ( from 2007) which says the degree taught is equivalent to British but it does not explicitly states that it was taught in English, also going back to the university to get the letter is going to be very time consuming and painful process. Does anyone have any suggestions that they could offer?

Many thanks in advance for any recommendations.

Hi - you could write to UK naric via email, state you have done this in the past through them is this valid now OR you abother option is do a B1 test will cost you £150.00 and is a very simple test if you are good in your english. Follow this post link below:

Many thanks for the response, I will give it a shot, but another £150, that's close to what NARIC is charging any ways
