No it won't as long as you claim tax credits in JOINT names with her.

thx Cr001 for ur prompt reply,
i aked this from a solictor , he said its best to not claim till she get ilr, so thats y i was confused,

Child benefits must be claimed in the name of the ILR holder/BC spouse. You must however state your FLR(M) partners details in the form.

Tax credits must be claimed JOINTLY with your spouse.

Both, if claimed correctly as above, has no effect on visa and ILR.
