What visa did you have and what visa have you applied for?

Does your visa state 'no public funds'??

Council housing in in very short supply and there are very long waiting lists, so don't expect any miracles IF you qualify (which I don't believe you do)

In your case you could have access to housing benefit. They would consider the welfare of your child and because of your child citizenship, you would be granted a stay in the country. Do not let fear get to you. You have the right to. As I supposed if his or her father is British, you should be granted leave to remain.
