Applying for passport
Hi! My question is at the very end of this all. Just been looking into applying for a passport for my baby boy and it says on the government website that you need to ask somebody to verify your child’s identity. When you look into this more it says:
You must work in (or be retired from) a ‘recognised profession’. For example:
accountant
airline pilot
articled clerk of a limited company
assurance agent of recognised company
bank or building society official
barrister
chairman or director of a limited company
chiropodist
commissioner for oaths
councillor, for example local or county
civil servant (permanent)
dentist
director, manager or personnel officer of a VAT-registered company
engineer with professional qualifications
financial services intermediary, for example a stockbroker or insurance broker
fire service official
funeral director
insurance agent (full time) of a recognised company
journalist
Justice of the Peace
legal secretary (fellow or associate member of the Institute of Legal Secretaries and PAs)
licensee of a public house
local government officer
manager or personnel officer of a limited company

Member of Parliament
Merchant Navy officer
minister of a recognised religion (including Christian Science)
nurse (RGN or RMN)
officer of the armed services
optician
paralegal (certified paralegal, qualified paralegal or associate member of the Institute of Paralegals)
person with honours, for example an OBE or MBE

Salvation Army officer

Anyway, what do I do if I don’t actually know anybody in any of these jobs ?
You can sometimes pay for your GP to do it
