    Default Re: How to Change the Surame of a Child to the Name of the Mother's Husband

    Thank you for the quick response. No one is listed as the legal father on the birth certificate. My wife and I have been married for over 15 years, but we were estranged during the birth of our child and unfortunately, I was not present at the actual birth to have signed the BC. The biological father has absolutely no involvement with the child and does not contribute monetarily whatsoever.

    Thanks again!!

    If you were married to her when that child was born legally you are the father. If he wants no involvement and has said he won't contest it you should be able to change it.
