Re: legal civil registeration in UK
thanks for all ur replies guys.......
i dont understand y a husband wont want to legally marry his already existing wife?.....i know nikaah nama isnt a proof of marriage in UK until u r actually legally married....it'll cost round £20-£25 i think......
apart from the taxes benefits etc......*on the birth certificate of a new born child can a mother refuse her muslim husbands name to be put on the certificate? (if they are not legally married) *
i read this somewhere....
If the mother and father are unmarried, responsibility for registering the birth is the mother’s.
**If an unmarried father is not present and does not sign the register, his details will not be included on the birth certificate (and he will not gain Parental Responsibility for his child), unless:**
1) He makes a statutory declaration acknowledging that he is the father, which the mother must give to the registrar, or
2) A parental responsibility agreement or court order has been made and this document is presented at the register office.
so in Number 1.....all he has to do is fill in this simple form declaring he's teh father and thats it.....cant the mother do anything to avoid that?....if she doesnt want his name on the birth certificate!!!.....
what other reasons can their be for a husband NOT to wed his already wife legally......and if asked upon y cant we get marrid legally what if the answer is y shud we?......
