Baptismal certificate is not sufficient to prove filiation
By Persida Acosta
Jan 09, 2025 12:01 am

Dear PAO,

I have a question regarding the use of my baptismal certificate, which indicates the name of my deceased father. Can I use it to prove filiation? Aside from my baptismal certificate, I don't have any other document to prove my filiation to him. Can you enlighten me on this matter?
