Bit of background - DD is 12, and we'd like to go to Canada on holiday. I'm divorced from her Dad, although we both have Parental Responsibility. She has very little contact with him, although there are no Court Orders in place for residency etc.
He will not sign a letter authorising me to take her out of the country, so I believe I need a court order. We've been abroad before with no issue, but I believe Canada and the States are hotter on this, and I don't want to risk being turned away!
Seem to need a specific issues order. But I've also seen that you have to give precise plans / flight details etc. I wasn't planning on booking until this was resolved! And anyway can't I apply for a more general one which will give me permission each year? Seems ridiculous to do this each time we want to go on holiday...
Thank you in advance!
