The child’s father may provide such notice by giving a completed Form SC7 to their employer at least eight weeks before the start date of the APLP period.
An employee may complete a Form SC8 in relation to taking APLP for an adopted child or a Form SC9 in relation to taking APLP for a child adopted from abroad.

How will the employer know if the mother's section of the SC7 has been completed fraudulently?
Hello Roger
You should use the employer's checklist for APLP if you receive a SC7 form. See TELA dated 11 October 2010.
You can also request the following information within 28 days of receiving the SC7 form.
1. A copy of the child’s birth certificate and
2. The name and address of the mother’s employer (or her business address if she is self-employed).
The employee must give the requested information to you within 28 days after your request was made.
[Reg. 6(3) of the Additional Paternity LEAVE Regulations 2010 and regs. 8(3) and (5) of the Additional Statutory Paternity PAY (General) Regulations 2010.]
Concerns about fraud where raised during the consultation period.
At least, I don’t have to buy or design application forms for APL.
