He is now in major age. He intends to file a petition before the court to change his surname to his mother's maiden name.
My marriage was declared null and void (year 2006) and the custody of my son was awarded to me. When my son learned that my marriage was annulled (that same year 2006), he asked me during that time if his surname will also be changed to mine. My answer was not yet; maybe we need to wait for the proper time that we can settle that matter. An advice was given to me to wait for the major age and let my son decide whether he would like to file for a petition or not re: change of his surname.
(His father has not been supporting him and even has not shown any importance to my son.)
He now intends to file a petition.. What should be the ground that we can use in order that we can change his surname from his father's to mine.
thank you very much... God bless
