ILR for wife on tier 2 dependent

[Aleemragab]

Hi
I am on ILR after 5 years on tier 2 general. Wife came to UK (Tier 2 dependent) on last year I was on tier 2 with a visa valid for 1 year.
As I changed to ILR and her visa expired, We applied for another 4 years for her as tier 2 dependent (so she completes 5 years in total) but her visa came valid for 3 years ( so 4 years in total).
Now I am legible for for neutralisation for citizenship.
My question is if I become British citizen, is it possible to apply for ILR for her after 3 years in total in the UK as being wife of British citizen?
If not, then at the end of her visa period what visa I should apply for? Is it possible to continue applying for tier 2, or is it spouse visa? And if spouse visa, then do we lose all the period before it?

Thanks in advance

That would be correct as that is what the immigrations rules state she will, ie a 3 year extension. There is no discretion to grant more or less time simply because it is convenient for you.

No it is not. She needs 5 years as a PBS dependent before she can apply for ilr.

PBS dependent extension yes, which will be another 3 year extension. If you switch to spouse visa, her ilr clock resets to zero and a new 5 year period (2 X 2.5 year visas) before she can apply for ilr.

FYI
Please note that the PBS Tier 2 visa and PBS dependant visa for Tier 2 do not exist anymore. It is now Skilled Worker Visa and 'Dependant partner' under the Appendix Skilled Worker. This simply replaced the Tier 2
