Sorry to be a pain Amber but can you be more specific?

Do you mean yes we are ok there will be no problem because we have a child? (we have a child)

Or do you mean because we have a child it is going to cause us a problem?

We have just received our WTC its a joint claim it includes the second adult element is this ok? its not going to cause us any problems is it? as stated before we already claim CTC jointly

Hi Casa thanks for the reply, Is English B1 level - Esol entry level 3?

And how do we go about taking the life in the uk Test? is there a place we have to go to study? or is there a book we can buy to revise with?

Now that my partner has 2 and a half years leave to remain in order to apply for indefinite leave to remain at the end of this period will she need to have taken either the life in the uk test or esol equivalent level to submit with the application?.
