2. Birth certificate if children less than the age of twenty one are following as dependents. The parents of the children must be the applicants themselves. If either parent is not the natural parent, then custody letters must be provided. This is a requirement that is strictly enforced. Photocopies or scanned copies are acceptable. Birth certificate is not required for the applicants. It is only meant to show that you are the natural parents of the children you intend to include under the MM2H program.
3. Original letter of no criminal records, letter of good conduct, police clearance letters or police certificate. It must be issued by government of the country of residence, domicile or citizenship only. Of course the letter of no criminal record has to show a clean record.
