English language requirement

[cp01]

I had IELTS which was cleared in 2010 and I used for Tier1, Tier1 extension and ILR. Can I use the same IELTS certificate for english language requirement for British Naturalisation application?

as the IELTS is only valid for first 2 years so I am not sure, please confirm.

Hi.

Yes if it is a minimum B1 qualification.

If your qualification has run out
Some recognised test qualifications only last for 2 years. You can still use a B1 level qualification that you took more than 2 years ago in 2 situations.

Applying for citizenship

You can use a B1 level qualification that’s run out if you’re applying for citizenship and it was accepted when you settled in the UK.

I had IELTS which was cleared in 2010 and I used for Tier1, Tier1 extension and ILR. Can I use the same IELTS certificate for english language requirement for British Naturalisation application?
