Life in the Uk Test...HELP!!

Post by jaimito17 » Tue Jul 04, 2017 11:22 am

Hello everyone! I am new here and I found this website very useful as I want to apply for naturalization and I am a bit confused and the main thing is the Life in the Uk test.
my history is:

I came to uk in 2007 with a work permit visa for 5 years. in 2012 I got ILR and now I want to apply for BC but I am not sure if the Life In the UK test that I passed in 2012 for my ILR will be accept for my BC application? I know that I need to pass the English Language test but I'm not sure about LIUK...thanks

I sat through only one LIUK test and that was for my ILR. The test results were kept by the Home Office when they issues the ILR. For your citizenship application, print out a confirmation email of the test and attach it with your application.

LIUK does not expire. You will need to submit the pass letter with your application.

I also read that LIUK does not expired but the confusion came to me when I read the Naturalisation Booklet and in the page 16 said:

"If you have already satisfied the requirement to have sufficient knowledge of language and
life in the UK for settlement, by applying on or after 28 October 2013, you do not have to
demonstrate it again."

even in the Form AN in page 7 said:

"I met the knowledge of language and life requirement to qualify for settlement on or after
28th October 2013;"

I passed LIUK in 2012 so I need to do it again?!

That paragraphs refers to people who have applied for ILR on or after 28 October 2013 and NOT the LIUK test itself.
