The Pennsylvania Affidavit of Consent is an important legal document used in the state of Pennsylvania to provide evidence of a parent's consent to a minor's application for a passport. This document is typically used when the minor is applying for a passport without both parents present. The Pennsylvania Affidavit of Consent is a sworn statement that is signed by the absent parent in the presence of a notary public, and it must include the name of the minor, the name of the absent parent, the date of birth of the minor, and a statement of consent to the minor's application for a passport. There are two types of Pennsylvania Affidavit of Consent: the Universal Affidavit of Consent and the Non-Uniform Affidavit of Consent. The Universal Affidavit of Consent is used when both parents are not present, and it includes a statement from both parents that they agree to the minor's application for a passport. The Non-Uniform Affidavit of Consent is used when only one parent is present, and it includes a statement from the absent parent that they agree to the minor's application for a passport.
