I'm applying British citizen and my wife is applying ILR.

If I got my citizenship before my wife, can she apply citizenship straight away instead of wait for one year? Can somebody help to confirm that is correct?

Thanks for everyone who is looking!

How do you expect anyone to answer without knowing the history of your wife's stay in the UK in the preceding years?

See Requirements for naturalisation if you are married to or the civil partner of a British citizen
