Applying for naturalisation and life in UK test

Post by Palmist » Sun Nov 12, 2023 6:12 pm

Hi All,

hoping someone can help here with a bit of advice.

Current status: Indefinite Leave to Remain

Been about 10 years with ILR and I have just been lazy with my application for naturalisation.

I am going to apply now but it asks for life in UK test details, I did one ages ago and do not have details of test, all I have is receipt for the test fees but no reference number etc.

Do I need to do a test again before I apply for naturalisation?

You may want to get and contact the LIUK test organiser, provide your details to see of you can get new cert reissued or a reference number off them.

I did but test was so long ago they couldn't give me details, their advice was to attach a letter to home office in my application explaining the same.

I have just checked by doing a mock application online and you will be asked the reference number. So it is best to try and recover it.
