Dear Anali,
thank you for your reply. I phoned Home Office and was told that I could take the Life in the UK test being on tourist visa in UK. Actually the officer told me that anybody had rights to take the test and all they had to show at the centre was their photographic id. So I am taking it in two-weeks time. Hopefully, I will pass it.

Best regards,
Svetlana

Hi Svetlana

I am glad that you can now take the test. I am sure you will pass it. All the best to you.

Kind regards

Anali

Hi,
I have been married to the UK citizen for more than 10 years. All this time we lived together and worked abroad. According to the oficial site, now when we decided to settle in the UK, I can be granted ILE without applying to a two-year spouse visa provided I pass the Life in the UK test. The question is: can I take this test being in the UK on a tourist visa? I cannot find the aswer anywhere. I found the informatiion that one should provide valid id, home addreess and Home Office refference at the centre before taking a test. I do not have any Home Office refference. Am I allowed to take a test?

Can anybody answer my question?
Thank you.
