Advice on B1 IELTS Prep for Spouse Visa (UK)

Post by yosafa » Fri Feb 02, 2024 5:33 pm

Hi All

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing on behalf of my wife, who is a Moroccan national and is currently in the process of applying for a Spouse UK visa. We recently got married, and I, being a UK-born individual of Moroccan descent, am assisting her in navigating the visa application process.

As part of the visa requirements, my wife is scheduled to take the B1 IELTS exam for speaking and listening in July 2024. We are confident in her English proficiency and are aiming for the B1 level, as it covers the entire 5-year route of her visa, including indefinite leave to remain.

To ensure she is well-prepared for the upcoming exam, we are seeking recommendations for reliable and comprehensive course materials, both paid and free, that can enhance her chances of success in the B1 IELTS exam. Any insights and suggestions from the community would be immensely valuable??.

Thank you all in advance for your assistance and guidance!

B1 is basically a 10/15 minutes chat with an examiner - done it myself years ago.
Trinity College London are on the list of Home Office authorised exam centres and have some prep material on their web site:
https://www.trinitycollege.com/qualific ... SE-grade-5
(note this is not an endorsement of this company by myself or immigrationboards.com).
You can also find materials on other web sites (google). There's no need to buy any materials, the test is expensive enough. Don't remember seeing reports of fails, I'm sure your wife will be ok.
This is just my opinion as a member of this forum and does not constitute immigration advice.
Please do not send me private messages asking for advice.
