It seems to me that what you need to do, if you succeed in getting her a passport and traveling to Uruguay, is to apply for a 6-month Settlement Scheme Family Permit for her in Uruguay, to facilitate her entry into the UK.
If this is unfeasible, by all means try to get her pre-Settled status from inside the UK as soon as the passport is ready, at least apply.

If the worst comes the worst, given you both have status as parents, your baby could be allowed in the UK without any visa on the strength of her Uruguayan passport, but probably not without some surreal discussion with the border officer. But please don't bank on this, as every case is different. See this article on the case of a UK-born baby given a tourist entry stamp (with no right to work.. you know in case she tried to get employment!). Note that in this case the parents had ILR.
Absolutely. Hence why I said don't bank on it.
If the mother had permanent residence or ILR (by no means clear that she did), then the baby should have been let in on an EEA regulations stamp as the mother's family member. Otherwise, if the mother was not a qualified person, she could have been excluded for abusing the regulations. Moreover, did she have evidence of the relationship? The baby had no right of entry at a port as a British citizen - she had no British passport! As merely a British national, formal entry permission was required. Of course, the conditions of the entry permission are void, for the baby is a British citizen.
If there are no free appointments available at ukcvas, then yes, you have to pay ukcvas fee stated.sebasb21 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 03, 2020 6:11 pmI was doing the pre settlement application for my newborn (we live in the uk, we hold pre settle status already) , the only ID we currently hold for her is a Uruguayan passport so we need to book an appointment for ID check and biometrics. I was surprised to see we have to pay for that.
Am I doing something wrong here? anyone has any experience with this process?
Look for different time slots/locations. You maybe lucky to find a free slot.sebasb21 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 03, 2020 6:11 pmI was doing the pre settlement application for my newborn (we live in the uk, we hold pre settle status already) , the only ID we currently hold for her is a Uruguayan passport so we need to book an appointment for ID check and biometrics.
