Unobtainable passports for child

[Nata NV 4]

Hi, VJ friends!

Help me, please.

For my daughter CR2 Visa we have checklist for "Photocopy of Valid Passport Biographic Data Page". But she has no it.

We answered on checklist, sent photocopy mother's passport week ago, as rep told us. Mother's passport have page with information about child.

Today I read on http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/immigrate/immigrant-process/documents/Supporting_documents.html

Unobtainable passports

If you cannot obtain a passport, please submit a written explanation when you submit your other documents.

Will I have another checklist for the written explanation? NVC rep did not say anything about they need it.

Thank you for any idea.

Hmm...Do you have a good reason for why the child cannot get a passport? Do they issue passports to children in Ukraine? If they don't, then the embassy should be aware of this, but I guess you may still have to provide an explanation. I was also reading and it seems that they give children travel documents, are you able to obtain that? Here is a link, jump to country documents:

I found this info, read the second page:

It looks like it's ok if the child is on your passport, but they must travel with you.

Thank you, Ian H. for try to help. But my question was "Will I have another checklist for the written explanation? "

Husband called to NVC last Friday. Rep said we won't got another checklist for the written explanation.

Photocopy mother's passport page with information about child is enough.

But we believe this only when CC will be obtained.

In the link I provided, it says the child can travel on mom's passport if listed on there and traveling with mom. So you shouldn't receive another checklist for sending the written explanation along with the photocopy of mom's passport with the child's info.
