I'm assuming you mean that your Wife is British and that is the route through which you are seeking Naturalisation (rather than neutralisation - for that you could just throw yourself in front of a bus)
you will need to provide some kind of proof of your Wife's status in the UK, Passport is the easiest (why don't you have this?)
Note 6 If your partner is a British citizen without a passport, you must provide his/her full birth certificate (showing
the parents’ names), accompanied by at least one other formal document as evidence of ordinary residence in the
UK for the last three years. Anyone born in the UK on or after 1 January 1983 will only be a British citizen by birth if
a parent is a British citizen or settled in the UK at the time of birth. In that case, we will need evidence of the nationality
or immigration status of your partner’s parents at the time of birth for us to be satisfied that he or she is a British
citizen.
If your partner is a non-British citizen without a passport, you must provide a Home Office letter or other document
showing that he/she has been granted indefinite leave to enter or remain in the UK, accompanied by at least one other
formal document as evidence of ordinary residence in the UK for the last three years.
The following are examples of formal documents that may be provided as evidence of ordinary residence for the last
three years: notice of income tax coding, driving licence, building society savings books /bank statements, National
Insurance or National Health Service registration issued by the Department for Work and Pensions or a local health
authority.
