Geordielass44 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Hi I am applying to emigrate to Oz with my 15 year old daughter. I see from the forms that I should have permission from her father to leave the Uk. However her biological father has had no contact(I left him during my pregnancy) and he lives on another continent( not Oz) There is a blank on her birth certificate under father's name. I am assuming therefore that there will be no issues moving with her...but I though I would check? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saraloo81 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 You would be best to speak to immigration directly, I left new Zealand in similar circumstances with no contact from my daughters dad ever and had no issues getting her a UK passport and entry to the UK. I am now applying for Australia with a step son however we needed a statutory declaration signed by his mum as she was on the birth certificate. Immigration in London were really helpful. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_whites Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I took my daughter with me to Australia without the need for her father's permission. He is also not named on her birth certificate and has had no real contact with her. I had no issues with the visa or immigration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest samlee23 Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I am in the same situation with no father on the birth certificate and had no problems with bringing my son here, the only document they needed was the birth certificate. Good luck Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
