Urgent help - FLRM extension after 2.5 years English test

Post by shahinstu06 » Mon Oct 29, 2018 9:07 pm

Dear Sir/Madam
I have been granted FLR (m) on May 2016. I sat an English language test on December 2015 and I have passed B1 Esol Grade 5 (Speaking and Listening) entry level 3 from Trinity College with a Home Office approved provider and which was accepted as a successful application.

My visa extension is due on December 2018, Home Office has now required A2 SELT – GESE Grade 3 qualification for visa extension after completing 2.5 years.

My question is that, can I submit my same qualification B1 Esol Grade 5 in order to obtain visa extension as this is higher than A2 SELT – GESE, this is also stated in FLR (m) form that you may still be able to use your test with this application but only if it is at or above the appropriate level and was accepted as part of a successful previous partner or parent application.

Its level and awarding body is still on HO list but ESOL I think is abolished and that why I might not work.
The opinion expressed as above is neither a professional advice nor contesting/competing to other member's opinion/advice.

May be acceptable under 32D?

As far as I know ESOL is still accepted provided it was used before and accepted.
