Can a husband get paternity when the biological father gives up rights when child is under 1 year old by just getting a new birth certificate?
This is really confusing, can you reword it. If the biological father is giving up his rights, he's the only one who will be positive as a father for the said child in a paternity test. A new birth certificate, isn't the real birth certificate. Even if its a legal one, the child deserves to know who his / her biological parent is, even if he's chosen not to be in the child's life. In a step parent adoption, an amended birth certificate is issued. In all adoptions the original birth certificate is sealed and an amended birth certificate is issued with the new legal parents names.
How do you add fathers name to birth certificate in New Mexico?
First, you will need the father's acknowledgment of paternity or court order to that effect. Then, contact NM Department of Public Health for the procedure to file an amended birth certificate.
If you are overseas do you have to sign the birth certificate?
You cant. What you have to do is get an affadavit of paternity, which has to be signed and notarized by both parents, but not at the same time. Both parents sign and have it notarized, then send it to your state office of vital statistics and the birth certificate will be amended.
Can a original birth certificate be changed?
(This answer only pertains to the United States.) For non-adopted people, the answer is NO, the original birth certificate cannot be changed. However, in cases of adoption, original birth certificates are changed--or new "amended" ones are issued--to reflect the adoptive parents' information rather than that of the birth parents. In an overwhelming majority of states, these original birth certificates--the actual, truthful record of a person's birth--are then sealed from both public record AND from the individual for whom the birth certificate was issued. It is not uncommon for an adoptee's amended birth certificate to list entirely different information for time, place, and even date of birth from that on the actual (original) birth certificate/record, though this practice occurs far less frequently now than it did for previous generations. Another important note about altered/amended birth certificates: under post-9/11 laws, if a birth certificate was issued more than one year after the date of birth, the individual can, and likely will, be denied a U.S. Passport.
In Florida is it illegal for the birth mother to put the adoptive mother's name on the birth certificate?
Yes. It is illegal to falsify information on a legal document. The information you provide on the birth certificate must be accurate. An original birth certificate is issued before an adoption and it shows the identity of the biological parents. That record is sealed until opened by a court order. An amended birth certificate is then issued with the names of the adoptive parents and that becomes the child's official birth record in the public records.
Is an authorized birth certificate the same as a certified birth certificate?
The authorized birth certificate may refer to the Original birth certificate rather than the Copy of the Birth Certificate.

Can a child be legitimized without the mothers consent?
By legitimized, are you referring to a father's name being added to a birth certificate or otherwise deemed as a parent? If so, yes it can be done, with or without the mother's consent. Exact procedure varies by state, but generally, the father can petition the court for a paternity test and have the child's birth certificate amended or parentage legally established based on the results. It's a lot easier if the parents can simply come to an agreement. That way, only a form for an amended birth certificate is needed. It must be signed by both parents in the presence of a notary and submitted to the department in charge of vital records in your state of residence.
