Can anyone help.

My son is born in India and I currently have a British passport can I directly apply for a British passport for my son or I need to bring him from India on a visa and apply for a British passport.

Thanks,

Was he born before you became British (attended your ceremony) or was he born after you became British???

He born before I got my British citizenship in 2014.

Your son is not British so cannot apply for a British passport.

You becoming British doesn't make children before this date British.

What is the UK immigration status of the other parent??

my wife has IRL leave to remain.
my son is born when we are on tier 2 general.
on what visa or settlement visa can I bring my son to UK.

Child settlement visa.

Hi,

can't I apply for MN1 for my child and apply for a british citizenship for my child from India, or I need to apply for Indian passport and apply for a settlement visa only ?

No. A child Bron abroad has no entitlement to register as British. You will need to apply for a Indian passport and a UK visa.

Child would only have been entitled to register as British if born in the UK once either parent got ilr.
