English Language Requirement for 2nd Tier-1 Entpr Extension

Post by OhmV » Mon Sep 04, 2017 2:09 pm

Hi all
I am going to apply for 2nd Tier-1 Entrepreneur Extension as due to my absences from UK ,my eligibility for ILR is not due till May next year & my current extension expires in Dec 2017.

I successfully met English Language requirement in my initial & subsequent extension by providing degree which was taught in English. My query is that do I still have to provide the proof of meeting this requirement by taking appropriate test or applying to NARIC or don't have to provide any evidence & points will be awarded as per below guidance.

Article 223;
You can also meet the English language requirement, without the need to provide evidence, if you were last given permission to stay in the UK:
 under Tier 1 (General), Tier 1 (Graduate Entrepreneur), Tier 1 (Post-Study Work) or Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) and are applying for an extension of leave to remain

At Section 4 Part P of your application (06/17) you need to check the box for "Evidence previously submitted/considered to automatically meet" and straight go to section Q which is maintenance requirement.
