I have a 2yr old, my ex partner who I haven’t spoken to for 18months has just contacted me asking me for my child’s details so he can extend his parent visa which was based on another child, who’s parent is no longer supporting him being in his older child’s life. Our separation occurred when he walked out on us when the baby was 1month old and 1 week out of NICU born prem. Since that time he has been emotionally abusive and been exposed for substance abuse. He has not had any contact with baby or attempt to visit him I have been told by his family that he has extensive drug history in his country of origin. He is in no way fit to look after my little one, he was absent for the registration of birth so he is not on the birth certificate and my LO does not have his surname. He gave £50 for 1 birthday and that is it. Because of his drug use he cannot focus properly and cannot maintain concentration for simple tasks so I could no way give him any responsibility for the baby. He is now asking me to write to home office to support his application as well as give details of myself and extended family
members who he has zero contact with. Am I being unreasonable by not helping him extend his visa? I asked him to attend AA last year and he refused, there’s of course so much more to this story but I’m trying to keep it brief, any advice would be appreciated 😊
