The length of undertaking is that the father needs to sign off and agree to be financial responsibility for the child (not live with) so for at least 10 years. So even if he wants nothing to do with his child he is still is financially responsible for the care of the child.Yes, he lives in Canada but for whatever reason known to him, he does not want to cooperate even for the welfare of the child.
Sorry I don’t understand what length of undertaking refers to. Can you elaborate on this please? Is that how long the child has to live with the sponsoring parent?
I’m grateful for your time. Thank you
