No, there is no same day option for EEA PR applications.

What has your wife been doing then?

For PR, your wife needs to be a qualified person exercising treaty rights for the whole 5 years. Your employment is irrelevant.

Please also DO NOT post in CAPITAL letters. It is difficult to read and is the same as SHOUTING.

You will need to apply for a new Residence card, provided your wife is residing in the UK as a qualified person. So if she is a stay at home mum, she may need medical insurance.

Unless she was working for a 5 years period before you married.
