Hi. A PBS printout showing the level of your degree (equivalnet to UK bachelor) and 10 points for english would be sufficient. (use Tier 1 option in PB calculator).
Don't waste money on UK NARIC. (UK NARIC is the one who provides/updates the PBS calculator).
My partner is a PBS dependent and we just submitted PBS print-out and original degree certificate. Got ILR successfully in Croydon 10 days ago.
Even, there is nowhere in the degree/transcript it is mentioned that the medium of instruction is english.
Just, the PBS printout worked.

Hi,

I have recently submitted my ILR (long Residence) application and send my graduation degree along with ACCA certificate for english language requirement but I did not send any transcript or letter from Univ/College to confirm if it was in english neither have I posted calculator summary- just wondering if my bachlor degree from Oxford brookes and ACCA certificate will be sufficient? I was on tier 1 general before this and had previously satisfied the requirement through above certificates/degree.

Will that be sufficient or should I send a PBS calculator summary along with any proof from NARIC or Univ etc? and will they accept any document after the application?

your advice will be appreciated.

Kind regards,

SH

See the attachement.

Please note I entered a "First entry clearance date" of 1 jan 2009.
This date need not be exactly your date of first entry clearance. You can use any date, as this is irrelevant. Remember, you are not appliying for tier1 visa, just using that for accessing your degree.
For some reason, the calculator will not award point if u use dates from 2010. (I think, the relevant tier 1 rules on 2010 will not award points for bachelor degree fir jus t that one year period. if you try after 2011, you will see changes.)
