He definatly CANT apply if he isnt on the birth certificate

https://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Travel...plyingforaneworrenewedchildpassport/DG_174107

If the parents are not married to each other, the mother can give permission. If the father is not married to the child's mother (and is not divorced from her as described above), he can give permission only if:

* he has a parental responsibility order or agreement (in which case he should send this with the application)
* he is named on the birth certificate and the birth was jointly registered on or after 15 April 2002 in Northern Ireland, 1 December 2003 in England and Wales, 4 May 2006 in Scotland

SO HE MUST BE ON THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE TO APPLY FOR A CHILDS PASSPORT

First child passport - supporting documents you will need to provide

IPS needs to see original documents that prove your child is British. IPS does not accept photocopies of documents or documents that have been laminated, but will accept documents that are laminated for Braille labelling.

A birth certificate is not considered absolute proof of identity. Even if your child was born in the UK, IPS may ask to see further documents.

The documents IPS needs to see depend on where your child was born.

If you are still not sure what you need to send after reading the details below, you can call the IPS Passport Adviceline 0300 222 0000.
If the child was born or adopted in the UK

IPS needs to see the child's full birth or adoption certificate showing parents' details and one of the following:

* the mother's UK birth certificate, or her Home Office certificate of registration or naturalisation, or her passport that was valid at the time of the child's birth
* the father's UK birth certificate, or his Home Office certificate of registration or naturalisation, or his passport that was valid at the time of the child's birth* and the parents' marriage certificate

Note*: if the passport expired before the child's birth, you need to send the passport on which the father entered the UK.

Confusion.....does this mean that if FOB wanted to apply for her first passport he would need mums permission or a marriage certificate? Even if he is named on the BC.

???

A parent WITH parental responsibilty must give their permission for us to issue the child's passport. Please read ' A child's first passport' for information on who can give permission. Ok going to look through the book for that bit....I have the passport forms infront of me

It says the exact same as starbucks101 said lol

Basically I think if FOB name is ON the birth certificate and the birth was JOINTLY registered then he needs your permission. If he isnt on the BC then he would need to have a parental responsibilty order or agreement and even then he still needs your permission. Though thats what I think it all means not sure

 

[sweetlullaby]

Also would he not need the exact address of where LO is living?

 

[lou_w34]

not too mention he would also need a picture of lo

Very good point like a passport type one not a far away picture

And has to be either grey or cream plain background no other people visable etc and has to be a photo taken within one month of form being sent off AND has to be coutersigned by a respected community person who know's parent and can confirm that LO is theirs etc lol

If his name isn't on the BC, you are BFing and he hasn't bothered his arse to see her he will not be able to have her overnight. Especially as she is still young, she has no need to stay out overnight. As for the BC, he might want it to prove he has a daughter to get a 2 bed house if he is applying for Housing and coouncil tax benefit
