Non- EU applicants who enter or remain in the UK as a partner or spouse of a British Citizen or person settled there will need to show that they can communicate in English to a basic level. A new English language requirement has been introduced on Monday 29 November 2010 which is compulsory.
This requirement can be met by passing an English Language Test with a UK Border Agency approved test provider. Applicants need to pass this language test before they apply for a visa and submit an original test certificate with their visa application.
Alternately, the English language requirement can be met by having an academic qualification equivalent to a Bachelor’s degree in the UK which was taught in English. Applicants will need to supply the original qualification certificate with their visa application.
It is also possible to meet the English language requirement by having an academic qualification equivalent to a Bachelor’s degree in the UK which was taught in English.
The aim of the introduction of new language requirement is to help migrants integrate into British society – to open up more opportunities, help prevent exploitation, and allow them to benefit from, and contribute more to their communities.
