Absolutely and both parents have to give permission to apply for a US passport for the kid.I don't know the US law about this - does Rozy need a passport to enter the US as a minor citizen, or can she fly on Meigh's passport if Meigh shows her birth certificate?
(This used to be possible in the UK but has not been possible since various international agreements about, er, international child abduction were ratified. Precisely to prevent parents doing exactly what Meigh may be doing now, i.e. skipping the country without a passport for kid)
I still suspect Meigh is the only parent named on that birth certificate, but I await evidence to the contrary.
They will not allow an infant to board an international flight, or enter the USA, without its own passport.
In emergency situations you can work with the embassy for an emergency passport but you get grilled and checked over x10 before getting that issued.
