Confirming the other parents current address in order to request parental permission for immigration to Israel<\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

Unless the minor\u2019s other parent resides in a known address in Israel, the parent applying for legal status in Israel for themselves and the minor will be requested to produce a document\u00a0testifying to the other parent\u2019s current place of residence. The document must be authenticated, complete with notarized translation. This is necessary so that the other parent may provide their possible parental permission for the child’s immigration to Israel. More importantly, the other parent may provide an objection<\/em> regarding the minor\u2019s immigration to Israel and acquiring of legal status in Israel.<\/div>\n

What must the other parent be told regarding the request for parental permission for immigration to Israel?<\/h4>\n

The other parent must be notified, in writing<\/i>, at their current place of residence. The notification must note that an request of legal status in Israel involving their child has been submitted, and they have the right to oppose said request. The notification shall query the other parent whether they are opposed to their child immigrating to Israel, and whether they are opposed to their child receiving permanent legal status in Israel. If residing in Israel, they will be notified by the office handling the first parent\u2019s request. If residing abroad, they will be notified by the relevant Israeli consulate. The other parent has six months to make a reply. During the course of these six months, the minor will not receive a permanent legal status, even if their parent in Israel does receive legal status in Israel. If necessary, the minor\u2019s B\/2 Tourist visa to Israel will be extended for the period of the reply.<\/div>\n

What happens if the other parent denies their parental permission for immigration to Israel?<\/h4>\n

If the other parent is opposed to the minor\u2019s immigration to Israel, the minor will be requested to leave Israel the moment their visa expires. The visa cannot be extended once the other parent opposes the minor\u2019s immigration.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

It is possible that the other parent is opposed to the child receiving permanent legal status in Israel, but not to them immigrating to Israel. In that case, the child may receive an A\/5 visa of temporary residence in Israel until they reach the age of 18. This, provided the first parent\u2019s application for legal status is processed successfully.<\/div>\n

What happens if the other parent does not<\/em> object?<\/h4>\n

If the other parent did not provide an objection within six months, said lack of objection is interpreted as agreement. The other parent thus agrees both to the minor\u2019s immigration to Israel and to the minor gaining permanent legal status in Israel. Under these circumstances, the procedure for granting the minor legal status alongside the first parent proceeds as usual.<\/div>\n

What if the other parent has no right to object?<\/h4>\n

It is possible for the first parent to contend that the other parent is deceased, and \/ or cannot be contacted by legal means. Alternately, that the first parent may contend they have the sole custody of the child. In this case, the first parent must produce a death certificate \/ family court verdict attesting to these facts. Either document must be authenticated with an Apostille signature and notarized translation.<\/div>\n
