If not, any college near north London, we live in Barnet, can help her to study English and the life in the UK test.

We will apply ILR next year September, if she does not pass the test, will this affect my son's application for ILR?

Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2. Who doesn't need to prove their knowledge of English

You don’t need to prove your knowledge of English if you’re:

aged 65 or over
unable to, because of a long-term physical or mental condition

You must provide a letter from a doctor confirming your physical or mental condition.

My wife studied and passed LITUK in this way ( not blind but it worked for her).

You should read the F.A.Q. on https://lituktest.com/ as it gives you some useful information about the test.
