You won't be able to apply for a British passport for your son as he was born before you received Settled Status, and therefore is not automatically British.
The COA only confirms you have applied, not that you have been approved. Many applicants are waiting for months to be approved.
This is just my opinion as a member of this forum and does not constitute immigration advice.
Please do not send me private messages asking for advice.
