Passport for child born with British father

[flipper byrne]

any advice on how this turned out please

got a request to send the CENOMAR or CRS form 5 - but we are in Dubai - we got married in sri lanka 2 years ago - son born in May this year !!! we sent marriage update to philiipines and have a copy of this but there is no way the system will be updated in phils yet and no way we can travel to get the cr5....

we submitted everything and i mean everything required on the supporting documents accept the above ... which were and are not on the supporting doccuments list

anyone find a way around this?


this is what is sent to the passport agency....



I fully understand there is a process but it is difficult if this is not stated in the information provided to us.

I do not understand why we need to provide marriage status for my wife xxxxxxxx when we are not required to submit our marriage certificate -It clearly states that to provide: TABLE B: Born on or after 1 January 1983 one of your parents’ full birth certificate (showing both the child’s and parents’ details) or naturalisation or registration certificate; and • if this is your father, his marriage certificate to your mother (this does not apply for those born on or after 1 July 2006) so i do not understand the need for the below? My sons British Citizen ship is from his father? \

My wife could ONLY be under my sponsorship in the UAE on proof of marriage. We enclosed ca copy of her residency visa which clearly states she in a housewife under my sponsorship (attached again)

To register the birth of our child, again we had to provide proof of our marriage in the UAE
\
We have registered our marriage with the Philippine authorities but this can take an eternity to process - and may not be live in their system yet. I have attached a copy of this registration.

As explained, we have great urgency and stress at the moment for a number of reasons.

We have to get a passport within 90 days in order to secure our sons residency here in the UAE and cannot leave without a passport regardless.
My Mother is almost 80, unable to travel, in poor health and has not met her grandson
i/we may have to return to the UK within a few weeks time and clearly cannot do so without this passport... we are totally lost without it.


Surely with all of the documents we have provided you can have no doubt we are married.

Please can you review/send forwards to the person named below for immediate attention.

can any of you guys help???

To avoid confusion & jumbled responses, I have moved your question to its own thread (this one).

[noajthan]

More info required...

What's your nationality (British by descent or other than by descent)?
Child was born where?
You reside where (Dubai)?

Be aware HO/HMPO won't accept at face value another country's acceptance of your status as implicit confirmation of your status (eg married).
Be aware an overseas application for passport can take months, maybe 6-12 (not 90 days).

If you are married how can a Philippine CENOMAR help?

Are you referring to this document?
https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... _09.15.PDF

Note if child was born abroad, Table B of that document doesn't apply.
Tables A & C apply instead.
