SET(M) - Life in the UK test?

[Chimaera]

Hi all, hopefully an easy question...

My wifes 2 year probationary period is up soon and we're going to apply for ILR, i'm a UK citizen, she is a US citizen.

Does she need to take the life in the UK test? the details on the IND website are a bit vague...

Thanks

Not sure why you think they are vague??? The SET(M) form is certainly extremely clear.

Yes of course a pass certificate from the Life in the UK Citizenship test is required.

I wasn't referring to the SET(M) form, as i said it was the wording used on the IND website that gave me doubts, merely a sentence that could be interpreted a number of ways and is absent from the SET(M) form.

Hardly a crime to want to be 100% certain before being conned out of £800 by her magesties government

Of course not a crime, to have doubts. It is just that I have yet to read anything on the UKBA website that has raised any doubts in my mind about this issue.

Anyway the form SET(M) is extremely clear on this matter.

Definately has to pass the Life in the UK test. This isn't a language test as such...although it helps if your first language is English! It's a test of
your knowledge of life in the UK, government, House of Lords and House of Commons, European parliament, UK history, statistics, facts, figures, and traditions.
