Applying for British citizenship without ILR

Post by eroaero » Tue Jun 04, 2013 12:28 pm

Hi, I've got a question with regard to British citizenship application for my wife. Your responses with be highly appreciated for this query.
I've granted ILR in 2012 sept and I'm looking forward for my Citizenship application in this year. My wife currently got dependent visa and she arrived to uk in 2011 jan. her visa as a dependent will expire in 2015 sep. however, she will complete 3 yrs in uk by jan 2014.
So my question is,
1. Can my wife apply for citizenship jan 2014 without applying for ILR? 
(note: assuming that I will get my Citizenship by Sep 2013. In that case she is married to a British Citizen and she is completing 3 yrs in uk by 2014 jan). 

Thanks in advice for your answers....
