Naturalisation application question- American degree /NARIC

[champ1234]

Hi there-
I am an American citizen applying for my naturalisation after having my permanent residency since 2009. I have lived in the UK as a spouse of an Irish Citizen since 2004. On my application form it has asked for:

NARIC letter that confirms the qualification
meets or exceeds the recognised standard of a
Bachelor's or Masters degree or PhD in the UK

Why do I need this as an American citizen I am exempt from the English Language requirement?
Could anyone shed some light as when I apply on the NARIC site it says I do not need it.
Thank you in advance.

You don't need and must tick NO to the degree and English test question.

Thank you- just to clarify, tick no to having a degree?

[CR001]

Correct yes. The question in the form is only relevant to meeting the English requirement. Other than that HO don't care what your qualifications are.

Hello,
I wanted to extend the ILR language question above. As an American exempt from the language requirement, if I say 'no' to having a degree then there are the following questions as to why I haven't taken a language test.

-Do you have a degree that was taught in English? [No]

-Have you passed an approved English language test? [No]

-Are you claiming an exemption from the English language test due to a medical or mental condition? [No]

-Do you have exceptional compassionate circumstances that prevent you from taking the test? [No]

Have I done something incorrectly in my application to trigger these follow up questions or is this typical?

It's normal.
