You can get an affidavit which is given by parents. Here is the format. Your father has to get it typed on a stamp paper and notarise it.

my lawyer has sent me a format which differs only slighty. He also said that it need not be notarised. Is notarization necessary?
Affidavit format
Affidavit format can differ as it done by different people at different times and as there is no mandated format. The bottom line is it should contain all the information regarding you(your name, your father,your mother) , your birthdate, place of birth. It should further contain some information regarding the person who is stating/swearing the information like - person's full name, full address and also the relation to you.
Normally affidavits are done by Mother and father. Mother is more important than father as she is the one who is giving the birth. In case you do not have parents, then you could get affidavits from any elderly person(relatives) who knows about you, your birth and your parents.
Further, you should submit a non-availability certificate from the local govt. body in your town/village. In India, this is a standard form and is available. Normally it is signed and stamped by the secretary of the local govt. body.
