Hello,

I applied for dependent visa on July 4 2012 (old rules) and entered UK on October 27 2012. I am eligible to apply for ILR by first week of October. My husband is a UK citizen.

I have a query regarding the English Eligibility. I hold an MTech degree from India. While applying for dependent visa, my degree certificate was enough for proving my English Eligibility.

But in http://www.gov.uk site, I find that my degree certificate alone is not enough to prove my eligibility this time.

Do I need a certificate from UK a NARIC confirming the equivalent level of degree, plus an official letter from university with my name and degree confirming that degree was taught in English?

Can I submit points from points-based calculator with the equivalent level of degree and the level of English? I do not find a category matching to my visa in the points based calculator. How many points are required to prove that I have English Eligibility? Please advise.

Thanks & Regards
Sreeja S.

Have you checked the PBS calculator? Under T1?

Yes. Tier 1 General Category under Extending the stay from inside UK. My Master's degree in Engineering gives 10 points for English language.

Will this do?

Yes, insofar as it's awarded 20 or more points for qualification, in addition to LIUK.

Hello Amber,

I am attaching PBS Calculator printscreen. Please tell me if a print out of this is enough to prove my English eligibility to apply for ILR?

Thanks & Regards

Yes, in addition to LIUK.

Thank you Amber...
