this question might be better in the British Citizenship category... http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewforum.php?f=42

Wish i could help - not too certain... on the application form there is usually a tel. no. to call for "help"?

but i believe you may be entitled to have her apply too? (she has PR already?)

You have to apply for naturalisation for yourself, and register your child.

You wife cannot apply for BC now as she is yet to have ILR.

Once she obtain ILR and provided you have obtained BC by then, she will qualify to apply immediately, without having to wait for an additional year.
