British citizenship application - English Knowledge

Post by SukruToprak » Mon Mar 17, 2025 5:03 pm

Good Afternoon,

i have got MY ILR 5th April 2024 and looking to apply British Citizenship after 5th April 2025.

When i applied my ILR, i choose the option for my English Knowledge. i passed IELTS UKVI when i applied my Tier 2 Application in 2019.

i have checked the Knowledge of language and life in the UK caseworker guidance (accessible) and there is something like below.

A person applying after 1 December 2020 for settlement on the Skilled Worker, Representatives of an Overseas Business, T2 Minister of Religion, T2 Sportsperson, UK Ancestry, Global Talent, Innovator, T5 (Temporary Worker) International Agreement Workers who are private servants in a diplomatic household, or Hong Kong British National (Overseas) routes can also meet the English Language requirement for settlement if they:

have previously shown they meet the required level in a successful application
For guidance on the considering the English requirement for these routes you should see Assessing the English Language requirement guidance for these routes.

A person who successfully made an indefinite leave to remain (ILR) application on the basis of a B1 level qualification can meet the English language requirement for naturalisation without needing to pass another qualification but will be required to pass the Life in the UK test if they have not already done so.


i have got EILTS UKVI Certificate which dated 23 march 2019 and i have used that for Tier 2 Visa my first application and i used that for all my other application along with ILR application.

As per Above comments, i dont need to take another test.

can anyone previously in same situation and advise ?
thanks.

This is correct. Submit the information relating to your test details and visa applications.
