if by the time she applies for her visa you have been married for 4 years; then she can apply for Indefinate Leave to enter (aka settlemnt visa)

No need to worry

This situation is quite complex - it also seems you made an 'out of time' application.

I advise that you seek professional legal advice

Good Luck
