Predicament

I have just done my notice and used birth certificate as documentation.
As I was born after 83 I only needed mine and my mums. Never asked for my dads certificate. Maybe double check if they need both?

If you do need your Dads you can get a copy from the registrar yourself, as long as you know where he was born it should be pretty easy to get x

I was born 87 and just put my notice in and didn’t need any documentation about my parents... is this just in certain places? Xx

I was born in 92 but never had to have any birth certificates! Maybe it's specific to certain areas

Born is 85. I only had to give them my mum's birth certificate

You only need to give details of on parent, but if you need your fathers one you can order one if you know where he was born

I didn't have my dads birth certificate and he was dead. We just filled in what we could with the vicar.

This is only needed if you dont have a passport

I was born 91. When we gave notice we just needed to know parents occupations x

We only needed ours and our mothers birth certificates.
But if you know where he was born and the date you can get a copy from https://replacementcertificates.org.uk/?hero=birth-certificate&utm_source=Google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=AdWords&kw=birth certificate uk&mt=p&gclid=CjwKCAiAx_DwBRAfEiwA3vwZYrxDJ6RHSx_KeAyUQazfSF_navl4lBHDUWqs8r-0RFK6Egwf4cWjLRoCnQUQAvD_BwE but you'll have 2 pay for a copy x

I was born in 91 and only needed my full birth certificate?

Born in 92 and not had to give any documents. Just had to tell vicar parents names, occupations and DOB

I was born in ‘96. Booked my appointment to give notice last week and was only told to take mine and my fiancé’s birth certificate🤔 no mention of parents birth certificates x

I was born in 90 and my fiance in 84. Neither of us needed our parents birth certificates, just passports driving licences and also to know what our respective Dads did/ do for a living. The docs you need must be different in each
area x

I was born in 83 i didnt need mums or dads mum passed away they didnt ask for my dads

I was born 94 and only needed ID for myself and partner not parents 🙂

If your parents weren’t married when you were born you only take your mothers. Although your biological father goes on the certificate unless you state otherwise

When I gave notice I only needed mine and my hubby's birth certificates and explained that the man on mine has nothing to do with me and I got to put my step father down or they would have left it blank for mexx

I was born in 83 and my partner in 90 and neither of us needed our parents birth certificates, just our passport and a utility bill with our address on.

Why is it required to have parents details when giving notice?

I was born 97 and all we needed was mine and my h2b passport
Parents I'd was never mentioned x

Just tell them you're no longer in contact as long as you have your mum's that's fine (exactly what I did) 😊

What is this about, why do you need parents birth certificates?? 🤦🏼‍♀️

We had to take our mothers birth certificates because we didn’t have in date passports and being born after 83 the birth certificates changed and no longer show ethnicity. You only need either your mum or your dads, not both parents.

I needed ours but explained my dad was deceased and partners not been in touch since many years ago. They were fine with it

I only thought they needed this if you didnt have a passport?

I need mine to as I have no passport but I’ve only got to take my own and my mothers

All you need is passport and driving license in London xx

Ben Hubery didn't know this, think my passport is due to run out

For people, if you have a valid passport (I.e. in date, with your correct name from birth) then you don’t need your mums birth certificate (we were told only our mums were needed as my husband has no contact with his father and mine is deceased).

Otherwise, they need your mothers birth certificate to validate your maiden name and your nationality. If you have a passport then those checks would already have been done at some point so a passport suffices

I was born in 85 and I did mine through the church - didn’t have to provide parents birth certificates. They only needed to know father’s occupation, to which my partner replied ‘professional dead person, is that an occupation’ - we laughed and that was it, put down as deceased and his occupation whilst he was alive.

So I have a question... I need to give notice this month, I’ve noticed my passport has slight water damage to the corner of my photo but it’s still in date. My mum doesn’t have my birth certificate and I was born in 94. Does anyone know what I can do in this situation?

I definitely didn’t need parents birth certificates and I was born after 1983. Is this because you don’t have a passport?

I was born in 1997 and I didn’t need a birth certificate for my parents all they needed was what my dad did, just took id & passport council tax to prove where I’m living and that was it

Tbf my brothers both hot married in the last 5 years and both born after 83 eldest had big issues as my late father had passed away so he had to take in the marriage and death certificates.
