Why do I need to submit bank statements?

The High Commission requires that you submit original bank statements.

What is the difference between a normal birth certificate and an unabridged birth certificate?

A normal birth certificate only includes the child’s details, whereas the unabridged birth certificate includes the full names and ID numbers of both the parents and the child. This serves as confirmation that a child is born to his/her parents.

Why do I need to submit an unabridged birth certificate?

An unabridged birth certificate allows the High Commission to ensure that visas are not issued to child trafficking syndicates, by confirming the identity and relationship of parents and minors.
