Finally!!!

Hi Ana, I have to get an NI number when I get my BRP card as the dentist here needs it before I can register! I need my teeth to be cleaned! Hahaha.. Also I'm gonna continue to study for the Life in the UK test as I want to take the test before the start of the new test on 25th March. Then time to look for a work (even part time). I plan to learn how to drive too.

Well by October 2013, all settlement applicants need to show they passed Life in the UK test and a valid English test (meaning not expired). No further details about it from the UKBA website yet, but they included that when they released the new rules on 9th July. Like you, I have to retake my IELTS..more costs!!!

if there will be a new rule about the life in the uk and valid english test on october 2013 for settlement, are you still going to take 'Life in uk test' before march 25th, or would it be better to wait until after October?

(me i don't think i will be able to study the whole book before march so i guess i'll take the new harder test

sorry about this questions rayna.

Life in the UK test has no expiration date so whether you take the old or new test, as long as you passed it, it's acceptable when you apply ILR and then British Citizenship. I have been studying last year (around October to November) so I already know some..what I need to do is study harder to be able to get the test before 25th March. I don't want to waste the book I have and what I learned so far..

Rayna,
One of the things that really helped my wife was doing those online practice tests and also the CD practice tests.
She would do them over and over again until she was getting all the practice tests (24 question test) 100%

I know that kind of rote learning may not suit everyone (you do need a good memory) but it really helped her.
Her objective was to pass the test. Not to be familiar with UK statistics etc.
