Dependents in naturalisation application

Hello

I and my spouse both have ILR and are eligible for Naturalisation.

However, I have recently received conditional caution, so I need to wait for 3 years.

Can my spouse apply for Naturalisation? I am dependent on my spouse, so should that be mentioned in the application? Will it affect the outcome?

Thanks,
R

There is no concept of dependents for citizenship. If she qualifies and meets the requirements, she can apply.

Also once you hold ilr, there is no dependency for immigration purposes

The naturalisation application has the following question:

do you have any dependants not applying with you at this time?

Should the answer be yes for her application as I am dependent on her but not applying at this time.
