Age — There are three important exemptions
for English testing based on an applicant’s
age and time as a Permanent Resident:
(a) If you are over 50 years old and
have lived in the United States as
a Permanent Resident for periods
totaling at least 20 years, you do
not have to take the English test. You
do have to take the civics test in the
language of your choice.
(b) If you are over 55 years old and
have lived in the United States as
a Permanent Resident for periods
totaling at least 15 years, you do
not have to take the English test. You
do have to take the civics test in the
language of your choice.
(c) If you are over 65 years old and
have lived in the United States as
a Permanent Resident for periods
totaling at least 20 years, you do
not have to take the English test. You
do have to take the civics test in the
language of your choice. Designated test
questions have been selected for you to
study and are identified within the list of
100 civics test questions, which can be
found at www.uscis.gov under Education
and Resources.
To qualify for one of these exceptions, your
time as a Permanent Resident does not
have to be continuous. You are eligible for
the exemption as long as your total time
residing in the United States (as a
Permanent Resident) is at least 15 or 20
years. You may not count time when you
were not a Permanent Resident.
You must meet these requirements for age
and time as a Permanent Resident at the
time you file your application to qualify for
an exemption.
If you qualify for an exemption of English
testing based on age and time as a
Permanent Resident, an interpreter, who
is proficient in English and the language
of your choice, must accompany you to the
interview

Yes. She needs to have been a permanent resident for at least 15 years before she can take the test in another language.

Seems that way, doesn't it fwf43? But yes she does have to take it in English, I know learning a different language can be difficult no matter how long you've been around it.

In 8 years if you weren't always speaking your native tongue around her she would already know english. Hope you are not the one teaching her english, "and be resident" give me a break.

She should. The official language is English, not Spanish. What your saying is that she was "illegal" for several years and never learned english?

8 years and you ask a question like this ?
