Incorrect :!: The Life in the UK test has no expiry date and you are free to use your current certificate.

However, you need ILR (or PR) before qualifying for British Citizenship. :idea:

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

The Life in the the UK test is valid for life. If you lost your original pass certificate perhaps you can request for a duplicate one to be issued.
