This is should be provided by the PMB staff who knows the processCan a travel clearance be issued to illegitimate children who are applying for their visa in the embassy?
Illegitimate children are under the custody of the mother. if they will be traveling with the mother, they are not required to secure a travel clearance from DSWD. If they are traveling with person other than the mother, they must secure a travel clearance. But in my case, the father signed the acknowledgement in her birth certificate so I was advised to get one rather.Where to file application:
