If the child was born after you attended your ceremony and you became British, then the child is British by descent and can apply for passport directly (which can take many weeks/months) or apply for Certificate of Entitlement to Right of Abode on their foreign passport.

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

Cow or ROA is a vignette placed in a Pakistani passport in your case. Costs around £400 and last as long as the passport is valid. Usually quicker than a passport application from Pakistan.

ROA allows the holder to live in the UK. Once here, you can then apply for a passport using the one week fast track service.

As it appears you are still applying for a spouse visa, you could apply for a British passport if you choose, but it could take long.

Hi Uk7592,
Did You get an appointment?

I booked for my kid's appointment for VFS on 11/04/19 and there was even so many slots available before.
Can you please help me with a few answers.

1) Did you apply ROA with VFS priority Service?
2) Do we have to make a copy of All documents?

3) Priority service is £212. What's the standard Process time?
Does Priority service make it fast in ROA?

Anyone recently Apply ROA, please reply, I have to submit documents on 11/04 as I already applied online.

Thanks
