Dependent Child Visa - English Language requirement

Post by Vijay99 » Sun Mar 02, 2014 10:42 pm

Hi,
I have an Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK.
Is it mandatory for my Son aged 9 (Will turn 10 this April) to satisfy the English Language requirement to apply for entry clearance?
Your help is highly appreciated!!!
Many many thanks!!!

Children don't have an English requirement.

Thanks a lot Amber!!! :)
This was exactly my understanding as well. However, while I was filling up the online form for my son; I had to fillin his date of birth. Based on the date of birth I was expecting the English Language Requirement section to disappear. Apparently, I have to either choose Yes or No for the question "Are you exempt from English Language Requirement?". Also state why chose Yes or No. This is what confused me :roll:
