Question

My wife goes during Hanukkah to sleep in another place; does she have to light Hanukkah candles there? She leaves immediately after candle lighting on the third night and returns by the candle lighting on the fourth night. It is a rented apartment in which there is no one who lights candles.

Answer

Shalom u-vracha 

Since you light at home, she fulfills her obligation with your lighting.
