What is the name of your state? New Jersey
How would I go about amending my older son's birth certificate to include his father's name on it in the state of New Jersey? We are not legally married but he is the father of both my children. His name is on the second child's birth certificate but at the time my first child was born, I put "father unknown" on the birth certificate. He was just approved for SSD and the woman there told me I could get an amended birth certificate so my older son would receive benefits also but not sure how to go about it. Do we need to go for DNA testing and all that first?
Thanx for any help in this matter.
Sincerely,
Ptrcmcc6
