question about geting a passport for my son in the philippines and both parents are here in US

[christal0611 0]

Hi I'm done with I-864 for my son and now I need to do the DS 230. I am just wondering because it says on the DFA website when getting passport for minors and both parents are in abroad we need to have an SPA and affidavit of support filled out and sign in front of the consulate. But it says on their website that personal appearance of either parent is okay to get a passport for my son. SO with that can one parent just do the SPA and affidavit of support so my mom can get a passport for my son? because my husband is here in the United states but I dont really have a good contact numbers with him.

So are u also here in US? If yes ,,before your mom can get a passport for your son..you need to send her an authenticated Affidavit of Support and Travel COnsent ,and Special Power of Attorney . These affidavits should be authenticated from the DFA here in US . You don't have to be with ur son when he applies for his passport as long as you give your mom the Power of attorney on your behalf. I am here in US and my 7 yr. old son just got his passport 2 months ago and that's what i did.

Mom applied for my son's passport in La Union and all i sent them was the SPA and the travel consent signed by only me coz my husband(petitioner) is not my son's biological father.

You need to download the form in the Philippine Embassy website its like spa, travel consent. If you will just mail it to the Philippine Embassy you need to notarized after that go to your county clerk for authentication and send it to the Phil Embassy include a money order in the sum of 25$.

Better file your son's passport in Manila not Pampanga...Main office knows very well about it than the local DFA office. gET an SPA for your Mom for her to get your son's passport.
