You won't be issued with a French Schengen visa through an application made in the UK as you have no legal status here.

Schengen visas aren't issued at border posts. At present we know nothing of the OP's immigration history but I assume that the Home Office may be in possession of his passport. :idea: :?:

Maybe you should take a look at the schengen borders code.

mgb has corrected my previous post. I'm not sure what you mean by 'supporting letter'. From whom :?:

Under European Law, OP is able to go with his wife to Dover and he will be entitled to visa to enter France under EU law, unless of course france is not complying with EU law.
[url=https://ec.europa.eu/home-affairs/sites/homeaffairs/files/policies/borders/docs/c_2010_1620_en.pdf]4. FAMILY MEMBERS OF EU CITIZENS APPLYING FOR A VISA AT THE EXTERNAL BORDERS[/url] wrote: When a family member of an EU citizen, accompanying or joining the EU citizen in question,
and who is a national of a third country subject to the visa obligation, arrives at the border
without holding the necessary visa, the Member State concerned must, before turning him
back, give the person concerned every reasonable opportunity to obtain the necessary
documents or have them brought to him within a reasonable period of time to corroborate or
prove by other means that he is covered by the right of free movement.
If he succeeds in doing so and if there is no evidence that he poses a risk to the public policy,
public security or public health requirements, the visa must be issued to him without delay at
the border, while taking account of the guidelines above.
