Recently applied for ILT set M route, for English language we provided UK Naric certificate which we have provided in previous applications without any issue, Initially when applying for a spouse visa as an ILR dependant and second time for an extension two years ago. Visa was issued without any issues related to Naric certificate

Received a communication from Home Office for ILR application that they cannot verify the certificate via their portals. We are bit confused as this certificate was valid was past two applications and not now?

To give bit of a background. Applied for Naric certificate with Maiden name as that was the name in Educational certificates.

First two times, provided this certificate with Married name in the passport and application and applications were successful without any issues.

Same scenario now, but not sure why the certificate can't be validated.

Home office are asking us to get another certificate or write English language test.

Due to personal circumstances cannot go for language test.

Please, advice, they only gave us 15 working days of time from 10.01.2025.

strange, however, it is mentioned on the UK Naric website that the certificate is still valid.

How much you are paying for the certificate though?
