Hi all,
This is my first post and would like some advice on the legal aspects of birth certificate correction prior to passport application.
My filipina gf needs hers corrected as her sex is given as "male" (which she most definitely is not!) This apparently, is not an uncommon problem in PI.
I believe it requires a court hearing to get this changed, which in turn necessitates a lawyer. Is it possible for me to initiate the change process from here in the U.K? Can anyone recommend a lawyer (preferably online) or offer any other advice. I will be over in Manila at the end of this month but only for one week, so would be good to some groundwork beforehand.
thanks in advance.
Peter.
