PR test - 1.5 years early

Post by jonbon » Wed May 07, 2008 2:35 pm

Hi Folks

About 1.5 years remain for my wife to apply for her PR. Can she sit the Britishness test now? I'm just thinking that procedures are anyways going to get burdensome and fees higher in future than they are right now?

What is your advise?

As it stands now the test is good for life... Remember that's "as it stands right now"... I would not worry about it until a closer date, you can reserve a time to sit it usually 7 days in advance.

You never know if the test or the requirements for PR will change within that time, I would just wait until a closer date.

I sat my exam in July 2006, and I'm only applying for ILR next month. Almost two years later!

But if I were to do it again now, I wouldn't. I think the immigration requirements of 2010 may be nothing like what we have now in 2008. I don't think that this was the case for 2006 v. 2008.

Just my 2 pence worth.
