You must be free from immigration time restrictions when you apply for naturalisation. In addition to that, you must have had ILR for 1 year if you apply on your own. If you are applying on grounds of marriage with a British citizen, though, the latter does not apply. See here and here.

(2) my husband's british passport is expired.can i submit his expire passport in my naturalization application?

That is no problem, just submit his last one. You need to prove that you are married to a British citizen. It is no legal requirement for your husband to have an up-to-date passport.

If I read the data right, you:
- have been resident in the UK for 3 years: check
- have been present in the UK on the day 3 years before the application: check
- haven't been absent more than 270 days during the 3 years: check
- haven't been absent more than 90 days during the last year: check
- will be present on the day HO receives your application: check
- are free from immigration restrictions on the day HO receives your application: check
- haven't been in breach of the immigration rules at any stage: check
- meet the English / good character / sound mind requirements: check (I just assume that.... )

Ergo, you are good to go from the 11th February on. Good luck!

He did not fulfil requirments of residency in uk.i am so confused about it. Plz any one can help me.

A British citizen by descent does not naturalise, so there is no naturalisation certificate.
