Have you attended the biometric appointment?
If yes, then no, you cannot change or upgrade to a faster service.

Hi
My situation is really awkward
I came here in dec 2015
So I completed my 5 years on spouse visa
My husband is British citizen and we got two children
We applied for naturalisation by mistake in dec 2020 before leave to remain which was refused and i got the decision on 8th of june and during this period my BRp expired
That was a terrible mistake we have done because of wrong guidance
Then we have contacted to solicitor and applied for my leave to remain application on the 11th of june
I m really scared
I dont know what will be the outcome
Can anyone help in this situation
I am hell depressed

A nationality application is NOT an immigration application and so it is NOT related to the immigration rules. I assume you have been overstaying since your visa expiry and so your continuous residence is broken. You will not qualify for ILR in that situation and very likely be offered a new family visa and you must complete the ILR qualifying period (5 years) from scratch. When did your visa expire?

Visa expired in March, see link below about citizenship refusal.

Then ILR cannot be granted and a new visa will be offered

It makes no difference if you had an application for naturalisation with HO. When your visa expired, you became an overstayer. Having a naturalisation application in process does NOT extend your visa conditions or right to reside. Naturalisation is not an immigration application.
