Exemptions To Life In Uk Test

[slimsam]

My wife is currently here on Spouse Visa. This expires on 28 Aug 08. I was just going through the UK Border website and have read this page...

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/ukreside...ageandlifeinuk/

In the list of people who can claim an exemption is this one...

- are applying for residence as a parent, grandparent or other dependant relative;

My wife is the parent of my son, who is now 10 months old, was born in the UK and so is a british citizen.

Does she therefore have the right to claim an exemption to the Life in the UK test ?

Unfortunately, she will be applying for settlement as a spouse (288) and not as a parent (318).
