Who's do I prepare first - dependant children with university tuition, or wife and myself?

You can do it either way, but it would be easier to do the children’s returns first, so you can get the information required from their returns. If you do the parent’s returns first you would have to skip over the parts regarding dependant income and tuition, and go back to it once you have the children’s returns prepared.
