hello darren-b

yes i have read the application form and i agree that it is this that we would be required to fill in with what they ask , but the paragraph i have talked about in the exemptions on the bia website and in the home office uk test book clearly states that the husband, wife etc of a british citizen MAY be exempt.

this is what causes the confusion or it is an error by the writers because i myself have never known anybody challange this paragraph.

i think i will also inquire from the home office and the bia in the new year even if only to be a thorn in their side.

thanks again for the reply
