Birth Certificate Problems Q and A's

Question #1

I am 34 years old and am using two given names for my first name. I found out that I am registered (SECPA copy of birth certificate) with only 1 of the two given names I am using. What better alternatives do I have (meaning less expenses and less time-consuming) to correct this discrepancy? All my documents (marriage contract, my children's birth cert, land titles, tax declaration, school and employment records, etc) are under my two given names. Please help.Also, my husband has "female" under sex on his birth certificate. What will be the procedures he has to undergo to correct this and how long do you think this will take?



Answer:

You have two courses of action:1. Correct the entry in your birth certificate to have it reflect that two names that you are now using; or,2. Leave your birth certificate as is and just correct the names you used in your other documents and henceforth use only the name recorded in your birth certificate.If I were you I'd take the second option. If you do decide to take the first option, you'll have to go to court and incur expenses in the process. In the second option, you only have to execute affidavits (if so required) stating that the you are one and the same person described in the birth certificate and the other documents you have executed.Unfortunately, your husband has no choice but to go to court to have the entry in his birth certificate changed from "female" to "male".God bless.


Question #2

Hi,Thanks for the advice. In opting to take the course, I have a few more questions to ask: 1. My kids' birth certificates list my two names as their "mother's name". What possible future problems will this cause them if I follow my birth certificate and file an affidavit adopting the single name written on it? 2. Will I have to apply for correction of entry under "mother's name" for each of my kid's birth certificate, also on my marriage certificate? 3. Will an affidavit be enough to prove that the two names and the one name belong to one and the same person, meaning, I won't have to apply for correction of entries on all my kids' birth certificate and my marriage certificate? Thanks for your help. God bless you!


Answer:

Since your kids birth certificate use the same two names found in your birth certificate, I don’t see any need to correct their birth certificate anymore. Since your official name which appears in your birth certificate tallies with that appearing in their birth certificates, you need not alter these anymore.Thanks again. God bless.


QUESTION #3:

Hi there!I’d like to ask your help about correcting my birth certificate. I just recently found out about it when I got a copy from NSO (it stated wrong birth month and year). So when we went to the LCR, we found out that I was registered twice. Both with wrong dates. It says I need to file a petition in court so they will change/cancel my records.I am legally married (with NSO MC) having the birthday I’m using since I was studying. I just want consistency in my papers and planning to migrate. Thanks and more power.

ANSWER:

You may need to file a petition for correction of entries in your birth certificate. The petition should be filed in court, Consult a lawyer for the procedure. Thanks too.

Mother's Heart

I loved you from the very start,
You stole my breath, embraced my heart.
Our life together has just begun
You're part of me my little one.
As mother with child, each day I grew,
My mind was filled with thoughts of you.
I'd daydream of the things we'd share,
Like late-night bottles and Teddy bears.
Like first steps and skinned knees,
Like bedtime stories and ABC's.
I thought of things you'd want to know,
Like how birds fly and flowers grow.
I thought of lessons I'd need to share,
Like standing tall and playing fair.
When I first saw your precious face,
I prayed your life be touched with grace.
I thanked the angels from above,
And promised you unending love.
Each night I lay you down to sleep,
I gently kiss your head and cheek.
I count your little fingers and toes;
I memorize your eyes and nose.
I linger at your nursery door,
Awed each day I love you more.
Through misty eyes, I dim the light,
I whisper, "I love you" every night.
I loved you from the very start,
You stole my breath, embraced my heart.
As mother and child our journeys begin,
My heart's yours forever little one.
