Assuming your child is UK born. Children are REGISTERED. Adults are NATURALISED.

1. It can take a couple of months or it can take many months to receive the REGISTRATION CERTIFICATE.

2. A registration certificate is NOT a travel document. Your son will need a passport. A child British passport can be applied for using the 1 week fast track service.

3. You get a citizenship certificate in the post for children. Once you have that, apply for British passport, see #2 above.
