Hi guys, just a quick question please,
Can I get refuse from the home office because I forgot to attach my tenancy agreement with the application I made recently based on my marriage with EU citizen? The Agreement has only my wife name on it.

It depends. You need to prove that you are or have been living together. This can come from a variety of sources, including a tenancy agreement, but not necessarily. Suitable documents are clearly stated on section 5 of the guide to supported documents here: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.u ... -04_KP.pdf

There they say:
We recommend that you send at least 6 items, from 3 different sources. These
can be addressed to you jointly or individually, provided they clearly show that you live, or have
lived, at the same address.
The tenancy agreement you mention could have been helpful, only if you supplied another document as well, dated around the same time, addressed to you to the same address that appears in the tenancy agreement.

So to answer your question, provided you sent another 6 documents addressed to you, jointly or individually, to the same address, dated around the same time, you should be fine. It you did not, then you can get your application refused.

If these are all original documents, if your two names appear on these, or if roughly half of them are addressed to you and half to your wife, and all dates are consistent (don't have to be all the same date, but that show that you lived at the same address over roughly the same time period), then cohabitation-wise, I think you are fine.

Common address aside, obviously you need to also have supplied all other evidence, as you say, marriage certificate, and all other documents that are applicable to your particular case to fulfill the conditions.
