Does my son need Int'l Passport and HSMP to vist US

[ugonnaokoroafor@yahoo.com]

Hi Everyone,
Please can anyone advice me on this new policy of "not stamping kids passport photo on their mother's Int'l passport".My self and wife has HSMP VISA.
My son of two years still has his photo on my wife's Int'l passport. We have been travelling with him to other countries without any problem.
On hearing about this new policy,I want to know if we will have any problem travlling to the US with him, although the US embassy are willing to give him visiting visa on his mother's int'l passport, but I don't what the UK immigration law says concerning this situation.
Or do we consider getting him a Int'l passport and also HSMP before applying for the visiting visa to US.

As far as I am aware there is no problem with children travelling on a parent's passport. It is only British passports that cannot have children added to them and each child has to have his/her own passort.

UKBAbble,

I think its not possible for any child to travel on their parents passport now. (Not an expert so could be wrong) & esp to the US.

I would be very very surprosed if your advice was true.

The OP said the US Enbassy were happy to issue a visa on the passport so it appears you may be wrong. I am pretty sure that family passports (non-British) are still accepted by UKBA.
