A very confusing email from UKVI

I cannot take any exams for now anymore

Hi Jen. What do you mean by this? I think there is no limitation how many times you wish to take an English test as long as you have the money to pay and patience to do it again. I know you already passed the TOEIC (which is no longer valid) but if you want to take IELTS (or equivalent) in the Philippines yes you can do so. I'm not sure about the waiting time and/or the number of accredited institutions over there but if you're worried of taking the test in UK then do it quickly while you're still home.

Does it mean that a person under Fiancee visa is allowed to study? Or even just take an exam

Define study? Reviewing for the test in a UK English test center or school is not studying in my opinion. Your English is fine therefore, you don't need to enrol and pay £250 to prepare yourself for the English test. All you need is self and online practice. Chillax!

She's right Jen...

I understand you can't take IELTS at the moment because your passport is not with you, but what about after you receive your passport?

The reason why I can't take IELTS is because the application form has to be submitted three weeks prior to the desired date, and I'm wondering what if my passport or my visa results will come out anytime soon? I submitted my documents April 2 so sooner or later, result will come out

If passport is needed in IELTS then I can't really apply for one because my passport is in British Embassy.
After I receive my passport? Then that will be two different stories, if there will be a visa on it then I cannot take IELTS or any exam anymore because I have to go, if there's none, my question would be nonsense as it means I'm declined lol.

My agony is, am I allowed to take another English text exam whilst I'm in UK and under fiancée visa? Because in FLR, my TOEIC exam won't be accepted anymore.

vernier, what I meant was just to take English exam if I am allowed, and no plans of taking review classes as it is not practical.

Study, I meant general term, is fiancée visa allows a person to study whilst under it? Because it's on the website and I'm quite surprised
