Hi guys I am new here the sorry these Questions might already been answered.

My Wife's is on spouse Visa and her extension is due soon. my question is that Does she need to do Life in UK test as well ? or any other english language test (she got original spouse visa on the basis in UK Naric certificate).

If this is her 2nd (2.5 years) extention then she does not need life in the UK test. The test is only required for ILR & citizenship applications.

Yes.
If you are employed, 6 months payslips + 6 months corresponding bank statements proving income of £18,600 p.a (this can be joint earnings). The most recent must be no older than 28 days on the date of the application.

Thanks, I am a Director of my company and and take basic pay and dividends and my Wife is also working for same company for the last 2 years and takes only basic pay.

so 6 months of payslips and dividend and vouchers would be enough ?

thanks

No. 6 month payslips doesn't apply when income is from self-employment.
See section 9 in this link:
https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... rement.pdf

9.3.2. For those employed as a director of a specified limited company in the UK, the relevant
financial year(s) will be that covered by the Company Tax Return CT600 and
corresponds to the 12-month accounting year of the company.
9.3.3. The evidence submitted must cover the relevant financial year(s) most recently ended. A
self-assessment tax return may include provisional figures, where the return explains
why this is so and how the figures were arrived at, and in which case a covering letter
explaining this and how any provisional figures tie in with other material submitted, e.g.
audited or unaudited accounts, may be helpful. This means that a sponsor wishing to
rely on earnings from self-employment as a sole trader, as a partner or in a franchise will
need to arrange to file their self assessment tax return to HMRC on a timescale geared
to meeting this requirement of the Immigration Rules rather than the deadline set for UK
tax purposes

wife also have 20,000 in savings in her personal account and 40,000 in my Business account.

Does your own salary and dividends combined reach the 18,600 threshold ?

It may be easier to use just your own information to fulfill the requirement as it would cut down on a lot of paperwork .
