ILR granted in 2011 - English Language Requirement

Hi all,

Apologies in advance if this has been discussed answered on here before.

Mrs has a bachelor's degree from overseas and is working as a professional registered with a regulatory body. ILR granted in March 2011 with the then Life In the UK test certificate.

To apply for Naturalisation, I understand she would need to take an English test or get her degree certificate validated by ECCTIS.

What would be the quickest and easiest way for her to evidence her English proficiency - ECCTIS or English test? If the latter, which would be the most straightforward and quickest test option?

TIA.

English test. She needs the B1 approved test from a ukvi approved test provider.

Thank you CR001.

I presume this is the ESOL Entry 3 (B1) test on the UKVI website?

Can anyone shed light on the duration of the above test and how soon the results will be available?

10 Minute speaking & listening test - provisional result normally provided on the day - certificate to follow in a few days.
