English Test

[grahame 1]

I have just spoken to my wife. And it's bad news she has a REFUSAL OF ENTRY CLEARANCE. ECO reasons for refusals as follows:

You are not exempt from the English language requirement under paragraph E-ECP.4.2. As evidence you have passed the English Language test at A1 of the Common European Framework you have presented your ETS TOEIC Official score sheet showing you achieved a score in speaking of 70. The grade required to achieve level A1 is 80, you have not met the A1 standard and I therefore refuse your application under paragraph EC-P.1.1{d} of appendix FM of the Immigration Rules [E-ECP.4.1]

We have 28 days to appeal, and my wife has already booked another speaking test for the 11 Jan. Do you think my Member of Parliament could help?

Hoping ur refusal will be overturned soon. Just send the passed English test and other documents back to them as soon as possible ... everything will be ok just tell ur wife to focus on passing the English test they require.

Sorry to read of the refusal, Grahame. Damn those Language Tests!!! ... IMO, they're so unnecessary for Filipinos - whose MAIN medium of instruction in schools is in English. Better luck to your wife on her next attempt.

Can't do any harm ... ... most definitely worth a try!
