UK Citizenship Test

The Life in the UK test is for those people who want to settle permanently (indefinite leave to remain) or to be a naturalised British Citizen. The test is for those people with a good standard of English. Anyone whose English is not so good (ie someone who cannot understand the information on this site) should take a combined ESOL (English as a Second Language) and Citizenship course. Such courses are available from local further education centres.

How do I learn for the test?
There are two ways to learn for the UK citizenship test. The first and most important is to obtain the official handbook 'Life in the United Kingdom: A Journey to Citizenship'.

The second way to learn is by taking practice tests. In practise, many people's learning style is such that doing practice tests is a much quicker and more effective way of learning for the official test.
