I suppose the the answer the test is looking for is "Can you tell me whom you are waiting for?" (an indirect question) but both sentences are poor style. The correct sentence would be "Can you tell me for whom you are waiting?" or just "For whom are you waiting" (as if anyone would actually say any of those in a normal conversation)
