Does everyone applying for naturalisation have to take a Life in the UK test?
It’s not necessary to take the Life in the UK test to become naturalized. If, for example, you’re over the age of 65, you don’t have to take the test. Also, you don’t have to take the test if your ability in the English language is not sufficient for you to read through the book and answer the questions. The Immigration and Naturalization Directorate organize courses to prepare people to develop their levels of English and to pass the test.
