Yes, B1 level English from an approved test/test provider unless her nationality is exempt or she has a degree taught in English.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
