My ex is trying to take our child out of the country. How can I prevent this?
Call the Passport Services Office of Policy and Advisory Services at
1-202-955-0232 for information on preventing your ex from leaving the country
with the child. This is what they will tell you:
Send a written request that the child(ren) be placed on a name check system. Send
child(ren)'s names, dates and places of birth, plus Social Security Numbers (if you have
them), and any other pertinent information (like a physical description), along with your
name, address, and a phone number where you can be reached, to Passport Services.
Make sure you sign the request. You can FAX the request letter to
1-202-955-0230.
