Can City & Guild ESOL for Life Entry 3 (s&L) be used for Naturalisation?

Post by Radia » Fri Jul 17, 2020 12:54 pm

Hello
My friend has Indefinite granted in April 2013 via spouse route and then she did the ESOL in June 2014 with City and Guild.
Can she use this for Naturalisation application or still need to do the new B1?
She already passed the Life in UK too.

thanks

She needs to do a new test. ESOL is only accepted if it is on the current approved test list. City and Guilds is not on the list.

You can only use English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) qualifications if they’re on the list. You cannot use other qualifications, for example GCSEs, A levels or National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs).
