The Government of United Kingdom has set forth anew conditions and obligations to crack the English language testing for the objective of acquiring visa and immigration. The proposed requisites cut down the list of tests you’re earlier suppose to appear for Secure English Language Tests (SELTS), that were essential to gain visas, instead it has brought in add-on conditions in order to manage the test.

The cambridge English and similar alternative English language tests sources are greatly influenced by the aforementioned preconditions led by the UK government. The candidates want to attempt for any of the category of UK visa and hence require to proof their English Language ability can go for level B1 of CEFR or Common European Framework of Reference and use their IELTS band therein.

A yet newer exams has been announced like IELTS Life Skills test which is particularly patterned for those aspirant who are up to attempting only listening and speaking test at CEFR levels A1 and B1.

The above mentioned amendments are expected to come into force from April 06, 2015.

Secure English Language Tests

 
It is a style and pattern used by UKVI to organize few set of tests on English language to take as an acknowledgment and token from the visa seeker to judge his/her English Language ability.

With the latest immigration rules and regulations, It is mandatory for the potential candidates who aren’t from the European Union will have to submit a certification from the SELT, as they aspire and apply for a UK study visa.

The test’s level vary and counts on course to course, the applicant needs to pursue. But in real sense, the value of such tests that an aspirant needs to qualify under UKVI rules (IELTS scores 4.0) is lower than that of a student requires for entering into a West London College (IELTS score 5.5).

It is in effect from last 25 years and has got recognition from 90,000 organisations across the world which has accepted IELTS as an imaginary device to measure the language competence of its candidate that has an extreme level of robust and extensive approach.
