It sounds like the issue is with the signature mismatch. Here are a few steps you might consider:

- Have the father re-sign the application in front of a notary public.
- Ensure all documentation matches and re-submit the application.

should i have the father contact the state department ? or me
In this case, it might be more effective for the father to contact the Department of State since the issue is related to his signature. However, you can also reach out together or stay informed on any updates. Would you like more information on how to contact the Department of State?

could you draft me up a custody agreement template
Case Rating: *
While I can provide general guidance, drafting a custody agreement is a specialized legal task often best handled by an attorney to ensure it fits your specific needs and complies with local laws. Here's a simplified template to consider:
- Parties Involved: Names and contact information of both parents.
- Child's Information: Name, birthdate, and any relevant details of the child.
- Custody Arrangement: Specify who has legal and physical custody, and any visitation schedules.
- Authority for Documents: Clearly state which parent has the authority to renew documents like passports without needing the other parent's signature.
- Modification Clause: Outline how changes to the agreement will be handled.
- Effective Date: When the agreement comes into effect.
I recommend consulting with a family law attorney in D.C. to ensure the agreement is legally binding and suits your needs.
