StateSix Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Hi, I have an 8 month old daughter with my Thai partner. We are not yet legally married. I understand that there is a Child Allowance of Bt 15,000 when calculating your personal Income Tax. However, I have been told that I cannot claim this as I am not officially recognised as the father, as I am not married to the mother. The birth certificate states me as the father and my daughter has my surname. I understand about the parental rights issue when being unmarried, but does that apply to personal tax allowances also? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaizbkk Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I am not married, my name is on BC, my son has us citizenship, have not "legalized fatherhood", but I have claimed the deduction and all I used was a copy of the thai BC. Kaiz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
