IELTS For UKVI
Introduction:
- On 20 February 2015, the UK government announced significant changes to Secure English Language Tests (SELT) for visa purposes. If you are planning to make a visa application to stay or move to the UK, it is crucial to be aware of the modifications introduced by United Kingdom Visas & Immigration (UKVI).
What are the Changes?
- Suppose you are going to or staying in the UK. In that case, a new test called IELTS Life Skills has been introduced in addition to the existing IELTS General Training and IELTS Academic tests. This new test is specifically designed for candidates needing to prove their speaking and listening skills at levels A1 or B1 of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). The IELTS tests for UK Visas and Immigration are managed by the IELTS SELT Consortia, comprising the British Council, IDP: IELTS Australia, and Cambridge English Language Assessment. For more information on the UK Visas and Immigration, please visit www.gov.uk.
Implementation Date:
- These changes came into effect on 6 April 2015. To ease the transition, the UK government has declared the results from all IELTS test dates between April 6 and 22 acceptable.
You can submit your IELTS results to UKVI if:
- Your visa application requires you to supply results from a Secure English Language Test.
- Your IELTS test date was before 22 April 2015.
- Your IELTS test was taken at any of the 1,000 IELTS test locations worldwide.
- You submit your application to UKVI before 5 November 2015.
