the OP has definitely got something adverse in his case file. A court attendance for something serious may be why the OP got refused.

unless OP tells us what were the reasons of refusals, this thread is useless.

having taken car and motorbike training with police, the rules are simple and as follows:

20 in a 20 zone
30 in a 30 zone
40 in a 40 zone
50 in a 50 zone
anything about that police will spare you.

The reason being most serious accidents happens in builtup areas hence the speed limits

Cheer up :P . I sent mine via NCS on 4.11/13 and received by HO on 05/11/13. I still haven't heard anything from them neither has the money been debited. Fingers crossed it would be soon. :lol: :lol: Excuse my naive question but how did you find out the date of receipt by HO? I submitted my applica...

I applied on 4th November. No news yet. I think they are under huge pressure with loads of applications so I would just be patient and wait at least a couple of months before getting in touch.

very interesting read. and very shocking as well.

just pay the ticket and its the end of the story

normally if you use passport check and send service, they process it and give you the receipt for the next day guaranteed as this is what they charge you.

you either need NARIC verification for your degree or obtain a B1 english language test

you only need the test certificate number off it so you should be fine for form AN

well done man. However, I am disgusted at UKBA for such a poor service for the money they charge. Its a disgrace. But just like every other semi govt organization UKBA is a total **** up.

you will be fine as they were over 12 months ago.

you will be fine as long as you don't incur more than 3 points in 12 months. there can't be any pattern to speeding, its just bad luck.

this is what you need >>>> http://englishexamcentres.co.uk/b1-esol ... vel-3.html

this isn't complicated.

I rang HO about it.

If you have a degree taught in the UK and you have the Certificate, that will be sufficient.

and the other piece of document you require if LIUK test certificate.

you don't need to re-take LIUK test

However, if you do not have a degree taught in English from a UK university then you have to do following:

1. a B1 english language test
OR
2. a degree certified by NARIC to be equivalent to the English requirement.

hope this helps

awesome. let us know the outcome. I will be eligible on 8th October for BC but I will apply once i come back from holidays in november

hello Adojay, I am not sure if they are open on Saturdays. Well, they close at 4 weekdays so there's no hope for them to be there on Saturdays. I would say do not rush for application. take your time, if that means your spouse has to take a B1 test then get her sat on it. Its peace of cake anyway. G...

Since my previous posts on this matter has been unearthed, am still pretty unclear whether or not I can send application to UKBA to receive Saturday morning. The issue is not very much about possibility of sending the application to reach UKBA by Saturday 26th October. It's whether or not there wil...

yes thats what it is. If you have ILR on your passports then thats fine.

Keep it simple no need to submit the documents that are asked for.

Documents about salary etc are only need if one is self employed or applying under EEA treaty etc so wouldn't include those.

the documents below should be sufficient:

1. Form AN + payment slip
2. Photos
3. LIUK Original Certificate
4.Passports and BRPs etc


unless you are self employed you don't need P60, bank statements etc anyway if I am correct.

hello InUKONHSMP.

good to see you here after a while.

if you have a degree taught in the UK then you don't have to prove your english proficiency. just include the degree certificate


and you won't have to take LIUK test again either as it should still be valid

no point calling them before 6 months are over

and with RTI employers wont be able to dodge NI etc anymore
