Hello,
Yes, if she has a Certificate of Application in hand, it's fine. Some can even work with these certificates (if they mention right to work). So she doesn't need to leave the UK. But she must stay in the UK (no travel abroad) while her case is considered.

thank you so much you were more informative then the lady i got through to on the phone who told me to look up the 3c3d uk visa information.
just hope the decision is positive...is there any reason why they "could" refuse?
