The UKBA can actually be understanding and a little flexible if given the correct information.

You need to send a letter explaining everything in detail about what has happened, and inform them the wife will take the test at College X, on the date X. Then ask them clearly if it is possible to be given leave to remain till 2 weeks after that date so you have time to process the new app, in order to save the expense and hassle of wifey going back the phil, and all the stress that woukd cause as her home is here now.

Also make sure you clearly apologise for the problems caused.

This letter must be done by your wife. Quote all immigration references. It needs to be posted Monday at the latest.

Council Parking Ticket offices can be similarly obliging when approached reasonably.
