I am going to apply for ILR in September however I need to know if I will be exempt for the new english test I believe will be introducted in November this year. My spouse already has passed a life in the uk test and has completed a 2 year visa.

Yes you are exempt. Life in the UK or ESOL is all you need. The new English test is for spouses that are applying for leave to enter.

I guess you meant that your spouse will be applying for ILR (not you).

And also those switching (i.e. - applying for leave to remain) as spouse / partner of a British citizen or someone settled here or extending their stay (leave to remain) under the same category.
