Does life in the UK test expire?

Post by Sanja123 » Wed Sep 06, 2017 2:04 pm

Hi,

My wife came to UK as a Dependent of Tier 1 (General) migrant in year 2012 and on 5 year route for settlement.

by October 2017, she will be qualified in the 5 year route to apply for ILR.
However in March 2013, she already passed the Life in UK Test with me while she was under Tier 1 Dependent visa. Anyway I've got BC in 2014.

My question is whether she required to do Life in UK test again for Applying to the ILR in end of this year. Specially in relates to the clause of '28 October 2013' changes.

Kind regards

Kindly refrain from digging up and posting in topics that are more than 5 years old. Post split to its own topic.

Not sure if you read ANY of the replies in the topic you posted in where it was clearly stated that LIUK test DOES NOT expire. October 2013 rules have nothing to do with validity of LIUK.

Thank you for giving me permission to continue.

In relates to above matter, Unfortunately I am still NOT sure whether my wife needs to do the Life in UK test again with New syllabus for ILR OR Citizenship.

Please note: there was few questions on Page 7 of Citizenship application

Kind regards

NO, it DOES NOT expire and she DOES NOT have to do it again!!

You tick the box that says under question 1.22.

The rest of the questions relate to the English requirement which she needs and must answer on the form.
