Did you wife apply for PR Confirmation (EEA3) or directly for BC?

You can apply directly for BC on your 5th anniversary under the EEA regulations. You will need to prove you have PR by showing that your wife (the EEA national) has PR (PR card or treaty rights evidence) and that you lived in the UK for 5 continuous years.

Thank you for your reply.Yes my wife has her pr card.she got it 2years ago before applying and getting her British passport.We have a daughter together and she's not working at the moment because she's looking after our daughter .Will I be able to get pr when i apply in 2015 as I'm the only one working and providing for my family though my wife gets only child benefit.And what documents will I send to ukba.

Since she has got pr already,i think all they will need from her is to show she has not been absent from the uk for more than two years.
You will need to show a continuous residence for the past 5years through utility bills and other proof of residence
