Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps her Department has taken to inform people whose entry clearance applications are on hold because of investigation into their Test of English for International Communication qualifications about (a) the fact that this is the case and (b) any action they can take to continue their entry clearance applications.

All applications made by those in the UK using an Educational Testing Service
(ETS) certificate have been placed on hold since February. Overseas visa
applicants seeking entry clearance who are reliant on an ETS test certificate
are not on hold but subject to interview by UK Visa and Immigration staff.
In addition, information was placed on GOV.UK in April and has been updated
since. This can be found at:
