Hi All,

I just granted an endorsement for Tier 1 (exceptional talent). I would like to confirm if IELTS (proof of English) is required for stage 2.

Also, I would like to know all supporting documents for stage 2 application.

Thank you

Thank you. However, your response is not explanatory enough.

I need response from those who have done stage 2 before.

Smakn, please check the link from Casa. It's an official guide.

Quote from it:
Q: Do I have to demonstrate a minimum level of English to apply?
A: There is no requirement to speak English at either the initial stage or when applying for an extension of limited leave to remain. You will need to demonstrate your level of English to qualify for settlement.

My endorsement was done in Nov 2018. No need for IELTS.

Can you share your Stage 1 timeline, please.

Hope you have applied for stage 2 as well. Any update on stage 2 application?

I believe the documents required are different for everyone. It largely depends on whether or not you're applying with dependents, what other kinds of UK visa you're switching from, or if it's the first visa you've applied for in the UK.

For reference, I switched from Tier 5 to Tier 1, and the documentation I had to provide was my previous BRP, and passports, and that's it.

Thanks buddy for quick reply.

My case is:
I am currently working in India since last 12 years. During 2012-13 I came to the UK on ICT Tier 2 visa for one year.
Currently working on a digital technology called RPA with Blue prism tool, since last 3 years.

Please could you/any other friend, suggest which documents do I need to submit for Stage 1 to make my strongest.

Regards.
