Hi,

I have an appointment with the NCS for tomorrow to hand over AN form for naturalisation.

However, I am not sure about the English requirement.
I have passed the Life in the Uk test in 2011.

I have a PhD from Cambridge University having done the research in the UK. Do I still need NARIC confirmation? The guidance and the booklet both are very unclear.

However, I found a link on gov.uk that says that the Original UK degree certificate alone is sufficient.But just want to make sure as the application could be rejected on this.
https://www.gov.uk/english-language/degrees-in-english

Please could someone clarify.

Thanks very much in advance.

Not if the degree was awarded from a University in the UK.
