Spouse visa

17.09.2025 10:15:12 Yes, if you are applying for a Spouse visa to join your British citizen spouse in the UK, you will generally need to demonstrate your knowledge of the English language. This is one of the requirements for obtaining a Spouse visa. You can meet this requirement by passing an approved English language test at the A1 level or higher from an approved provider. However, there are some exceptions where you may not need to take the test: 1. **Nationality**: If you are a national of a majority English-speaking country (such as the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc.), you are usually exempt from taking the test. 2. **Education**: If you have completed a degree-level academic qualification that was taught or researched in English and is recognized by UK NARIC as equivalent to a UK bachelor's degree or higher. 3. **Age and Health**: If you are under 18 or over 65 years old, or if you have a physical or mental condition that prevents you from meeting this requirement. Make sure to check the latest guidelines on the UK government's official website or consult with an immigration advisor to ensure that you have accurate and up-to-date information tailored to your specific circumstances.

17.09.2025 13:04:41 Yes, to apply for a UK Spouse visa, most applicants must demonstrate knowledge of English. This is usually done by passing an approved English language test (speaking and listening) at level A1 CEFR or higher for the initial application. For visa extensions (after 2.5 years), the requirement increases to A2 CEFR, and for settlement (ILR) to B1 CEFR. The test must be taken at an approved test centre and on the Home Office’s list of recognised providers. However, there are exemptions. You do not need to take the test if you are a national of a majority English-speaking country, if you hold a degree taught in English (and can provide certification or UK NARIC/ECCTIS confirmation), or if you have a physical or medical condition preventing you from meeting the requirement. Failing to meet the English language requirement is one of the most common reasons for refusal, so preparing this evidence is crucial.

17.09.2025 13:33:43 Yes, in most cases you must meet the English language requirement to apply for a UK Spouse visa. This is usually proven by passing an approved English language test in speaking and listening at A1 CEFR level or above for your first application. For extensions after 2.5 years, the requirement rises to A2 CEFR, and for settlement (ILR) to B1 CEFR. Tests must be taken at a Home Office–approved test centre. You do not need to take the test if you: are a national of a majority English-speaking country, hold a degree taught in English (with confirmation from Ecctis/UK NARIC if obtained abroad), or have a disability or medical condition that prevents you from meeting the requirement. Failure to provide valid proof of English is one of the main reasons for refusals, so preparing this evidence in advance is essential.
