Assuming you have been exercising treaty rights (have been working, studying or self-sufficient) in Ireland and Ireland has been your main residence, then your wife qualifies for Surinder Singh Pre-Settled Status. All info here:
https://www.gov.uk/settled-status-eu-ci ... ss-citizen
Look under the section
If your family member is a British citizen (‘Surinder Singh’ applications). I'll be a paper application.
You cannot use the online service to apply if this is how you qualify for the scheme.
You need to call the EU Settlement Resolution Centre to find out how to apply. You’ll be asked a few questions over the phone before you’re sent the application form.
