Its not necessary for the child's father to be the sponsor. If he doesn't meet the criteria set by interior ministry and you meet the same you can sponsor your child. This was the information i got it from Captain at the gharaffah immigration office in march 2013. For a child born for parents under different sponsorship, the parent who meets the criteria should apply for a visa. But both the parents salary certificates and NOC from the their respective employers to be attached with the visa application. then the ministry will review it and take decision to approve/reject. If approved, pay fees and get the RP stamped at the same time.
