Relocating back to UK with non-EU Wife - Options?
I am a British Citizen currently living in Toronto, Canada as a permanent resident with my Canadian wife. Should we wish to relocate back to the UK in the future, can anyone shed some light on the possible options there are for us in terms of having my wife being eligible to live/work in the UK? Thank you in advance.

Unless your wife can qualify under Ancestry visa or other route via her own British/European ancestors, your choices are:
1. YOU sponsor her for a spouse visa:-
Start here:
https://www.gov.uk/join-family-in-uk
Read the following document carefully to see how you can qualify under the financial requirements:

Once you have read these documents come back with any further questions
2. You go the Surinder Singh route to enter the UK. Search on this forum for Surinder Singh
