Hi,
My wife completed M.tech (Biotechnology) In India from JNTU. She came to UK in 2014 (Tier 1 - General Dependent visa ) and now eligible for ILR visa. I searched for the English language requirement, but confused. Can you please help me below 3 questions.
If i go for NARIC approval do i need to provide letter from University about course thought in English?
As i only have Course Transcripts and awarded certificate, no where it mentioned that the course thought in English.
    If she want to right exam in UK, which one she need to write (B1, B2, C1 or C2 level) for qualifying ILR?
      when i checked the test centers, Nearest one shows below for Wiltshire, does it matter where she take the exam?
      Pearson - 73880
      Pearson Professional Centres-UK Bristol
      Third Floor - North Building, Crescent Centre, Temple Back Bristol BS1 6EZ
      "PTE Academic UKVI, PTE Home".

      THANKS FOR HELPING IN ADVANCE!

          She need B1 test which she can book at any convenient approved centre. For naric assessment she will need an English proficiency letter from the institute.

              B1 is what is required and does not matter location where it is taken, just ensure it is on the HO approved list.
