Hi Guys/Gals,

My wife and my stepson have both received their 2 yr green cards. My wife's card has my last name that she took when we married. My stepson still has his last name from Colombia which is on his passport. How do I go about changing his last name to our last name (legally)? Thanks for your help.

As that the requirements/instructions my vary from state to state: Check your local state/jurisdiction for the proper procedure.

The only legal way to change the child's name is through your local court.

You will need the father's consent to change the child's name.

If you adopt the child and the father's parental rights are terminated, then you would not need the father's consent to change the child's name through the court.
