You can apply now as spouse of a British citizen (or could have straight after your wife naturalised), if you satisfy all requirements as per the guidance: https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... le-version
No waiting period.

When? And how quickly after arrival in the UK did you claim asylum?

Hi, as you are a spouse of British citizen you can apply straight away no need to wait.
I'm a refugee too I have applied for Citizenship since last year but still waiting for decision, by the way can you share your wife Citizenship timeline? How long her application has taken biometric to approval?
