As your wife is british she can claim all benefits and it will have no effect on your ILR

Yes but she can't claim additional benefits due to the OP being in the country.

What benefit does your wife want to claim?

Sorry, if only it was that simple!

Can't claim any benefit? Who on earth told you that? Are you referring to the "No recourse to Public Funds" restriction on your spouse visa? If so, the term Public Funds is tightly defined in para 6 of the Immigration Rules, and that definition certainly does not include all types of benefit.

Amir, what type of benefits are you hoping might be claimed?
