    @jeff

    kapag undergrad ng high school ang spouse mo. She's required to obtain 4.5 average ielts band score (functional english).

    if high school grad, a certification from her high school is required that the medium of instruction was conducted in english.

    if college level, a certification from her college and high school.

    If college grad, a certificate from college is enough.
