I believe you were granted ILR under Tier 1E route. This means your wife and children remain under PBS dependant as usual until they get ILR under PBS route.
It is a very common misunderstanding that they need to switch to family route if you get BC. Your BC application does not change anything for your dependants. Switching to family route is a big mistake as
their ILR clock will be reset to zero.

No and no!!
You need 90 days maintenance funds of £630 for each dependent applying for a visa extension.
Char (CR001 not Casa)

The ILR clock will reset to zero only if they switch to family route. Also ONLY the family route has an income requirement. You seem to be mixing things up. You simply need the maintenance fund for 90 days under PBS dependant route

In that case they cannot extend under PBS route. If you do not meet the financial requirement, the correct route is FLR(FP) (10 year partner route)

No such requirements. She has to switch as soon as possible

FLR(FP) under the 10 year route does not have a financial requirement.
