Your question is not an immigration problem. The real issue is the custody of the child. Seek professional legal help as the question of custody and then removing a child from the country is a difficult one.

Your overstayer status will not have a great bearing on the matter.

From the child’s point of view - were they born in the UK? If so they have a right of abode and access to a British passport. At the same time you might have a right to remain with access rights to the child.

On what basis are you an overstayer?
