Pregnant woman refused approval paper 20 times
A MOTHER-TO-BE has made the journey to her local community office some 20 times in the past four months, and each time been refused a certificate verifying the legitimacy of the birth of her child.
The woman, surnamed Zhang, from Zhengzhou, capital of central Henan Province, became pregnant with her first child in March. Three months later, she began applying for the birth service certificate.
But community officials rejected her application, saying the residential building where Zhang lives doesn’t come under their administration, Henan Business Daily reported yesterday.
The building was owned by a chemical plant but when the company merged it became part of a residential complex.
But the developer didn’t report this to Hongda Community, leaving residents in limbo, Zhang was told.
On Tuesday afternoon, Zhang once again visited the community office, aware that couples in a similar situation had still submitted forms.
But officials told Zhang she must first get forms stamped at her residence registration center, leaving her still without the certificate.
Couples in China are required to get the official birth service certificate when the wife is pregnant.
Under the nation’s family planning rules, urban couples are allowed one child and rural couples two, if the first is a girl. Two children are also allowed for couples if both parents are from single-child families.
The birth service certificate will also enable expecting mothers medical care and entitle them to a birth insurance.
Without the certificate, mothers will face fines and the new born cannot get residence registration.
