AS I HAVE SO MUCH ON MY PLATE RIGHT NOW AND VERY LITTLE HELP IN THE WAY OF MY HUSBAND AND I AM ABROAD SO IT MAKES LIFE VERY DIFFICULT RIGHT NOW AND I WANT TO GET HOME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SO THAT CAN WAIT. OKAY A QUESTION PLEASE PEOPLE WHEN I APPLY FOR MY BOYS UK PASSPORT DO I NEED TO INCLUDE ANY OF HIS DADS INFORMATION LIKE BIRTH CERTIFICATE OR HIS DADS PASSPORT?

We couriered the application and all documents over to the UK to a friend who signed the applications and then mailed it for us to the passport centre. We thought it would be faster than having them mail the applications back to us in Canada at the time and then mail them to the UK.
