I am at the moment attempting to assist my 16 year old nephew with his application form for the RN and require a wee bit of help.
Background to start with.
My wife’s sister was separated from her husband. She unfortunately died in January 2006. My wife and her other sister became legal guardians to my nephew and his sister. My nephew is 16.
Back to application form.
On the Supplementary Application for Entry into the Naval Service (AFCO Form 102) Part 1 it asks “Who is in your immediate family†and then gives the following relatives.
Father
Mother
Spouse
Step father
Step mother
Fiancée
But, no mention of legal guardian, my nephew doesn’t want his dad to be classed as immediate family for 2 reasons.
1. His dad is a dick.
2. His dad does not want him to join the RN and will do anything he can to put a stop to his application.
Now the questions.
1. Because no box exists for Legal Guardian will he have to tick the box marked father?
2. Will his father be able to stop him joining the RN by going down to the careers office and making a cnut of himself?
