Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Exempt people with a Citizenship GCSE from the Life in the UK test

Allow a Citizenship GCSE to count in the place of a life in the UK test so that those who have passed their Citizenship GCSEs can use this for their British Citizenship applications.

More details

Those who pass a Citizenship GCSE should be entitled to use this in the place of a life in the UK test as the content is similar. They should not be made to take the life in the UK test as well, if they've passed this GCSE.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.

We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
