Are you British by birth or a naturalised British citizen?

How old is the child?

If the parents have acquired their British citizenship at any time other than at birth, was the child born before or after either parent acquired British citizenship?

AND was child born before you became British of after?
Where was the child born??

Fill in the payment sheet as directed by the .gov website. I have assumed you are applying from India as you don't say from where.

As there is a reference to Gerry's (who is the visa front end in Pakistan), rather than VFS (the visa front end in India), I would assume that the OP's child is currently in Pakistan. Therefore CR001's link amended accordingly (not that the information is significantly different).

Remember that the child is British only if s/he was born on of after the date on your (or your wife's, whichever is earlier) naturalisation certificate.

If the child was born before either parent got naturalised AND both parents are now naturalised, the child should apply for ILE.

If the child was born before you got naturalised AND your wife is not naturalised, the child will have the immigration status of the less-privileged parent (in this case, the mother).

child was born after my nationallity and i can i apply for his british passport but the issue im having now is
that there is one form 'paying by credit or debit card form' can i print that form and fill my card details and post it to my son and he can use it with his application and they can deduct fee from my account because there is no online payment option in this case
Also there is one more form 'applying for a passport from pakistan' and this form says that you can submit supporting documents either pakistan or uk, is that true if some one can check this form and help.
