I am about applying for a partner visa for my wife but considering if my son qualifies for ILR. I got my ILR 5 months after my son was born outside of the UK. Does he qualify for ILR too?

No he does not. He will follow the same immigration path as your wife.

Nope child would follow the same immigration path as your spouse.

Children born abroad follow the same immigration pathway and qualify for ILR at the same time as the less-privileged/second parent.
