Carolyn D Allred said: I have a question on the 110 yr. rule. I have been watching the records of my extended family and have found a 1st cousin who needs to be sealed to her parents. Her father is a brother to MY MOTHER. tthere are NO living relatives tok ask permission to do that sealing. I AM THE NEAREST relative and I want to do this work. How CAN I get permission to do the sealing?

    I have a personal rule for people who fall into the 110-year rule... I leave them alone and hope that one or more of their descendants will join the church. In the majority of cases, I'm a relative, but generally 2nd cousin or more distantly related.

    I am training a consultant who needs to applyfor permission to have a child sealed to parents less than 110 years. It used to be at the bottom of every profile...you could choose feedback relative to a problem with the website, or request for assistance

    Where is the form now?

    it's not at the bottom of any profile.

    @Kdaymayday ,This article discusses the procedure. How do I request ordinances for an ancestor who was born in the last 110 years?

    To find it go to familysearch.org, click the ? mark with a circle around it, click "Help Center", put 858 (the article ID) in the search box and the help article should come up, you may need to Open in a New Tab to read it better.

    When no living relatives ( except you) are available to give permission, here is the steps to take.


    I cannot find any close living relatives to grant permission for ordinances..
