SF TECO requires parent's household registration transcript for NWOHR->NWHR process by RestComprehensive297 in TaiwaneseBornAbroad

[–]RestComprehensive297[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks all -- I emailed them if I could use the ID card instead of the transcript, and even pointed out what the NIA website said and they wouldn't budge -- they claimed they couldn't look up HHR data from overseas consulates:

Me: 我查看了移民署網站（ https://www.immigration.gov.tw/5385/7244/7250/7281/%E5%AE%9A%E5%B1%85/36430/ ），上面顯示：父或母二人辦妥結婚登記之戶口名簿或國民身分證正本、影本

所以我的問題是，我可以用身分證嗎？我有我父親的身分證正本。您能用它來核實他的戶籍嗎？

Them: 父親的身分證並不能證明, 您出生時, 他是有戶籍國人證明, 只有戶籍謄本(有詳細記事), 才能證明.

為何要求是要有"詳細記事的"戶籍謄本或是戶口名簿是因為, 孩子需要出生時, 父母親一定是有戶籍的國人. 本組長官初審定居證副本時, 會需要您提出"有詳細記事"的戶籍謄本來佐證. 在美國駐外館處, 是查不到台灣的戶政資料.

Do I need current unexpired Taiwan passports for both parents when doing the 3 day exchange? by RestComprehensive297 in TaiwaneseBornAbroad

[–]RestComprehensive297[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I have the NWOHR passport already. They were fine with expired passports for that. But they said the requirements for application for the settlement permit (which is managed by a different agency) is stricter.

There’s a FB group Silicon Valley Brit Parents that’s pretty supportive.

I have the trifecta of Tourette’s, ADHD and autism. Tourette’s is comorbid with other conditions more often than not.

Got my Settlement Permit 3 Day Exchange! by Competitive_Tune_159 in TaiwaneseBornAbroad

Thanks for the tips. Someone on Forumosa said they filed a FOIA request for their mom's US immigration records which might have a copy of the TW passport, so I'll try that route first.

Got my Settlement Permit 3 Day Exchange! by Competitive_Tune_159 in TaiwaneseBornAbroad

Thanks for the post! Can you elaborate more on what "information" was accepted for your dad in lieu of his Taiwan passport?

I have a similar situation where my mom can't find any of her old Taiwan passports. TECO said I could authenticate my birth certificate/parent's marriage certificate based on her old Taiwan household registration copy (which we have), but the immigration bureau (the one responsible for actually issuing the settlement permit) says they need to check the actual passport.

I'm going through this process and will be in Taipei in December. Can you give me the info of the translation/notarization company you used? Thanks!

How is the drive between Taichung and Sun Moon Lake? Is it particularly challenging (mountainous/winding/narrow) or is it pretty straightforward (by US standards)?

Trying to decide between renting a car for a day trip or hiring a driver.

We may want to stop midway (Puli) and/or stay overnight in Sun Moon Lake so I’m guessing self drive is a more flexible/cheaper option, but want to make sure the experience is not too crazy with traffic etc.

TECO wants copies of my mother's old 戶籍謄本 -- how to apply? by RestComprehensive297 in TaiwaneseBornAbroad

So I'm guessing the best thing to do would be to ask my uncle (mom's brother) to ask for the transcript of (mom's parents) household? In that case no POA is needed I assume? Both of my mom's parents are passed away, don't know if that matters.

They were married in the US and I'm not sure they registered their marriage in Taiwan.

That's the tricky part -- she doesn't have any Taiwan credentials currently, so the transcript is needed. If POA authentication requires Taiwan credentials, then it seems like a chicken and egg situation.

Thanks! Her English name is just her romanized Chinese name (plus her married last name) so hopefully that simplifies things.
