Rhonald , sorry to hear of this latest hiccup , I assume that the letter sent to your wife was in English , she needs to find a very skilled interpreter who is good at greasing , either at the Peoples Court or Civil Administration and for her to go along with son and get the relevant authority to stamp a piece of paper , what if the father is dead or moved countries 12 years ago there would be possibly no record of him , good luck Sujuan and Robert .
