Hi @Paul091169 welcome to the community, there is some information here about premiums that might help.

You can also fill in our benefits calculator here to find out what you could be entitled to.

Hi I hope you get progress with the ill health retirement. 

Make certsin sin you have all the medical evidence to say your wife is not fit for work & there is no possibility of her returning to work in the  foreseeable future. 

Sort to to be negative has your wife's employer involved Occupational health / looked at reasonable adjustments so your wife can continue to work in some role with her current employer?

There would be no premiums. There's only a premim for people who live alone and no-one receives for them.
