Who is this for?
Are you taking the A1 test, or helping your husband or wife get ready? Start here if the learner knows only a few English words. You can ask about lessons before a test is booked.
The test is IELTS for UKVI Life Skills A1. You speak and listen. The result is Pass or Fail.
What to do first
A teacher can explain a new word in Hindi or Urdu. Then you say the English yourself. Your spouse can practise with you at home. They cannot answer for you in the test.
| Where you are now | Practise this first |
|---|---|
| I know a few English words | Short answers |
| I can answer, but I cannot ask | One simple question |
| I can talk, but I miss what I hear | A new time or place |
An example
Say these questions out loud. Then answer with your own home and work.
- Where do you live?
- Where do you work?

When to book
Try a new question with another person. If you can answer, ask one question back, and hear a short message, you can look at dates. If you still translate every word, wait before you pay.
Check your visa on GOV.UK before you pay. Booking steps and test times are on the spouse visa page. Free practice is on the topic list and the practice page.
