I'm afraid she needs to switch to FLR(M) which has a A1 English and Financial Requirement. It's a 5 year route to settlement.

It's not whether you can tick one or the other, you are applying under Appendix FM that means you tick A.
FLR(M) will be refused if you cannot meet the Financial Requirement (you can combine incomes and use savings if you have enough), you may appeal (if you have the right to) and ask for consideration under Exception 1, which will be strengthened if you have a British/settled child or a child that has been in the UK for 7 or more years. Alternatively you may apply under FLR(FP) and Exception 1.

my current salary is now £8000 from both j0bs,
1.untill 17 may 2014 i had earned £18800 ..from both jobs
2.lloyds pharmacy my contract was 37hrs till 1nov2013 and then 4nov2013 to 3may2014 i was working 20hrs,then from 5may2014 started working 4hrs contract but untill my last paid end of financial yr end 28march2014 ihad got £13403,+£700 paid on 28apr2014. from the new year but this month pay which im expected bcz i had done overtime should be approximately £400 which will be paid on 28may2014.
3.security job i had paid upto £6000 until march 2014
so approximatley i had received around £13403+£6000= £19403 until
so the question is that my lloyds pharmacy which im working in reduce hours,will be a problem?or it has to be a full time job ...?
previous earning will be considered or not which is more than £18600
still though i earned more than 18600 until april 2014,but currently im working 18 hours from both jobs,im getting child tax credit and im getting wrking tax credit also ...
