Since you said wife, it means you are still married and there is no custody/visitation order which would not allow her to permanently move without your permission or a hearing to allow the court to decide if the move is in the best interest of the child. That is still only a piece of paper. If you are american citizens, then in order for your child to get a passport, you must sign the application as well as your wife before one will be issued.
