给儿童办护照，父母需要同时带小孩去办理，如果父母有一人在中国，需要一份公正了的同意书（STATEMENT OF CONSENT OR SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES). 我的问题是这份同意书是到任何的中国公证处去公证还是到美国领事馆去公证？问了一个中国的公证处说他们公正不给填表不给盖章，只给个另外的公正本本，这样美国这边是不认可的吧？该怎样做很是纠结，望老师指教。谢谢！
-The Form DS-3053 needs to be completed, and then signed and dated by the parent in the presence of a Certified Notary Public (i.e. stamped by Notary Public). Probably the 中国的公证处 is not allowed by the Chinese law to stamp a foreign language document without official translation, so the parent had better bring the completed DS-3053 to the US Embassy or the nearest US Consulate in China where notarization is a regular consular service to sign and date it, and ask the US Consulate to stamp the signature. The parent needs to bring his/her ID or passport to go there.
