I went last Jan. to Phil.Embassy to get my SPA,Affidavit of Support and Parental Travel Consent Form to be notarized then I email it to DSWD Manila.
As far as I know,because my husband and I is sponsoring my mother and daughter they are required to show our affidavit of support and ofcourse a parental travel permit for my daughter to the Phil.Immigration.
I have been told by the Phil. Embassy that even for a short visit a child travelling witout their mother need to secure a travel permit from DSWD and affidavit of Support.....,but I do know and sure of is that the Philippine Immigration is the one requiring this not the British Embassy.
Please correct me If I am wrong.
This is correct. My mum had to get the travel permit from DSWD when they had a vacation in Hongkong with my then 3 y.o. nephew, since my sister (nephew's mum) didn't go with them.
