Exemption because of disability
If you have a long-standing, permanent disability which prevents you from learning English, you may be exempt from the KOL requirement. To be exempt, you must:
be suffering from a long-term illness or disability that severely restricts your mobility and ability to attend language classes; or
have a mental impairment which means that you are unable to learn another language.
When you apply for settlement, you should send us evidence from a medical practitioner confirming your disability.
If you require special arrangements to be able to learn English or take a test, you are not exempt - you still must meet the KOL requirement.
Life in the UK test centres and many colleges can cater for a variety of disabilities, such as blindness. An applicant may be able to do the test even if they produce evidence of a disability.
Well clearly it would not help if there has been no preparation. I think you need to track down a place that can give tuition to a blind person, and discuss how they would take the test.How would it help if we go there with no preparation .......
