In present case, it doesnt make sense for wife to claim HRA, even if it is possible. We need some policy reforms to prevent such occurences.

Definately, she can claim HRA from state govt. The accommodation is provided for her hubby & not for her. She gets HRA with like all the other facilities.

Yes, as per govt norms, she is a different entity, just like either or both can claim LTC, LFC or leave.
