if we get the coa do we still need to go back in her country for the visa application?
can't we apply within?

No - ur spouse will need to apply from her home country, unless you are an EU citizen from another State and are using EU rules.

agreed with Wanderer. There are some rare instances where you might be able to apply from within the UK but you will have to fight it out at court for sure and even then you are not assured of getting it. Get the COA, get married and apply from outside

If the wife has to go back, then what about the child?

OP, does you baby hold a passport and willing to travel with mother?

If not, then mom would not travel without baby.

Please keep this tread alive by keeping us up2date with CoA process and further steps you take.

Thanks
