My wife is currently jumping through the UKBA hoops for ILR.
As part of this she is undertaking a Cambridge Skills for Life Course at Entry 3.
On the UK Border Agency is states that:
I am just checking if doing only the Speaking and Listening exam would be enough, or if she has to do the reading and writing exam also? (It only states that the qualification must include speaking and listening) but does not explicitly state reading and writing.English language qualifications used to demonstrate knowledge of language must be at Entry level 3 or above. The qualification must include speaking and listening and either:
be listed as an ESOL qualification on the Ofqual Register of Regulated Qualifications and have been taken in England, Wales or Northern Ireland.
The register includes a wide range of English language qualifications from awarding bodies recognised by OFQUAL. If you have a qualification at ESOL entry level 3, level 1 or level 2, taken in England, Wales or Northern Ireland, which is on the OFQUAL Register, you can use it to support an application for settlement. Or
be on the list of recognised English tests and qualifications. We will accept a qualification on this list which was taken abroad as well as those taken in the UK; or
be a National qualification in ESOL at Scottish Qualifications Framework (SCQF) levels 4, 5 or 6 awarded by the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) taken in Scotland. If you are studying in England, Wales or Northern Ireland for a qualification that is on the OFQUAL register, the qualification will meet our requirements, provided it is at ESOL entry level 3 or above. It is not necessary for the qualification to also be on the list of Recognised English tests and qualifications.
Many thanks for your help!
