Parental Advice Form

[Stevephoto 224]

I am once again sorry but a search here and with google turned up nothing. The Parental Advice form...Is a simple notary sufficient or is someone more "formal" needed to witness and administer the oath?

Simple notary will suffice. Your fiancee can get the Parental Consent form at the Local Civil Registry. There are a lot of Notary Publics within the vicinity of the Municipal Hall so she won't have a difficult time looking for one. Notary would cost 150-200 pesos.

yesterday i visited an attorney here. i also asked regarding the consent and advice form. they said they don't have but said they can make on the spot or i can bring the one that i have as long as it has my father's signature he can notarize it. i also asked if it should have 2 witnesses and does my father needs to be present. and he said no need..

idk how it works in the place where joan would go.. but she can go to a notary public and they can also make the affidavit for her father/mother/parents to sign. or they can make their own and have notarized or get in the municipal hall.

i found some samples of affidavits online and i just edited some that applies to me.. lol. since i only have my father to sign the consent and advice for me, i did not make it joint affidavit and it can also be a joint affidavit where both parents sign on the form. but the atty said that what i did is fine as long as it has the signed before me blah at the end. and signed by my father..

a simple notary is fine.. as long as it has the signature/s of the affiant/s. we dont really have oath taking here when having a notary..it is a simple notary usually.the secretary will stamp something on the papers then the attorney signs it then that's it. i just dont know if cfo prefers two parents to sign on those forms.. what will happen if i only have my father to sign it btw?

One parent can sign the Parental Advice form. It will still be accepted.

Would witnesses suffice if a notary is not possible?

It should be notarized. As I've said, she won't have a difficult time looking for a notary public because there are lots of them at or within the vicinity of the Municipal Hall.

The issue is not finding a notary...we can find one...her parents might not be able to get off work to go...

some attorneys, notarize the document without the person who signed, in front of them.. joan can take the form to the notary public as long as the form has th esignature of her parent/s then bring her parent's ID... govt issued ID is preferred but some uses cedula. i had asked the attorney about this and told me, my father need not to be present once he notarize the form..as long as the form has my father's signature and ID, he will notarize it.. just dont know if the other atty in joan's place also does like the atty i went to.also no need for witnesses the atty said..

There are other complications...sorry to be vague but I need to go back to my original question: what if a notary is not an option...at least for her parents signature. How much of problem is this going to be? Joan will be 23, so she needs the advice...Would witnesses be OK?

the problem there, is, what if CFO wants to see a parental advice that is notarized? but if there is really none, u may try.but cfo might demand a notarized parental advice..

[Robb&Ann 101]

i haveread before that if the form is not notarized, the cfo would want to have the parents present during the seminar..so, if the parents wont accompany the beneficiary, the form must be notarized.. that is based on what i have read here on vj few months ago.. we don't know what will happen until joan is there in cfo and if cfo will accept the parental advice not being notarized..but have witnesses signed on it..

- get it notarized. Have the parents sign it, then take it to the notary (and/or attorney) with their ID and "git 'er dun!"

My fiancee lives in Bangkok now but will be returning to Manila after we get the NOA2 to complete the process and interview there.

She's 25 so she will need the parental advice form completed. It won't be a problem for her mother to fill it out and sign it.

But, her parents also live in Bangkok, they won't be in the Philippines when she is back there.

My question is, will my fiancee be able to have the document notarized with a COPY of her mother's ID rather than the original? Obviously, she won't be able to take her mom's original ID from Thailand to the Philippines, as her mom needs to keep it!

Thanks...

She can have the form notarized at the Philippine Consulate in Bangkok.
