If You Pass

You must score 75% or more to pass the Life in the UK Test. If you pass, you receive a unique reference number. You need this number for your British citizenship or settlement application, and the Home Office uses it to check that you have passed.

If you took the test before 17 December 2019, you may have a letter with a test reference ID instead of the newer unique reference number. If you lose that older letter, send a letter explaining that it has been lost with your citizenship or settlement application.

If You Do Not Pass

You can rebook the test as many times as you need, but you have to pay each time. Use the result as a signal to revisit the chapters that felt uncertain, then book again when your practice scores are consistently above the pass mark.

A failed attempt is frustrating, but it is not the end of the process. Focus on the official handbook topics, review your weaker areas in this app, and use full mock tests to rebuild confidence before the next booking.
