Possibly December 2013 if the delay was not your fault and you meet the other requirements and are not the spouse/civil partner of a British Citizen.

I assume you met a B1 English requirement for your current leave therefore you should suffice the new requirement. Moreover, if you have a degree which is comparable to a UK degree and was taught in English that should also suffice. You should not apply before December 2013 as you will face refusal.

O levels

hi,
What if some one has done O levels from Pakistan. Will that satisfy B1 requirement?

thanks
