Language requirements for naturalisation

Post by pink456 » Mon Sep 30, 2013 12:14 pm

Hi all,
My husband is a EU passport holder, with a BA (taken in Italy, with 3 english language written texts and scores but scores are not IELTS or anything like that they are "good" "very good" etc), would that make him exempt from the language exam requirement?

Under KOLL, he needs to just pass the Life in UK test?
And if he applies after the 28th of October this year, he needs both life in the uk and an ESOL certificate?

I am not sure why he would now need to pay for a ESOL certificate given he's been working for 5 years in UK, using the language, and also has a permanent residence. Any clarification would be much appreciated!

Many thanks in advance

Amber
