Could you please indicate which form are you using? Also paste a link to the online form if you have one..

Is your wife's VISA stanped as well?

Dependents of HSMP cannot apply for Tier1 or any sort of VISA being in UK. I think your wife would need to go back to India and apply a fresh Tier 1 Although I am not sure if her earnings (Being a dependent on HSMP) would be considered to fulfil the criteria.

I think the former choice is ...
