I think that would be quiet normal as they have to do computation to see if your wife qualifies for allowance

We have about 20k in savings. Would this rule her out for JA.

Sw do have the power to look into your accounts only if they have reason to believe that you are hiding something.
As you appear to have nothing to hide best be up front with them and give the required details.
Savings of up to 40,000 for a married couple do not affect JA
