When my step daughter was born the father's name was never put on the birth certificate. I won't go much into detail, but through bad advice from lawyer and lack of doing my research, I claimed to be the father and had my name put on a new birth certificate(for the reason of adoption). So now my daughter has my last name (in Peru). Her green card has her old name. If we send in an I-90 to get name changed will the new B.C. be enough for them to issue a new one?

Also how long will it take? We want to go back to Peru soon. Her passport expires soon and has to get a new one. Because she has my name in Peru the new passport will have my name on it and green card won't.

Instructions say include B.C. so I'm assuming it will be enough.

It asks for Father's name. Should I put my name cause I'm legally her father in Peru(but not here) or put N/A?
