My 12 year old son wants to change his last name. I have remarried (5 years ago), have known my spouse for 11 years. He is the only father that my son can remember. He wants this last name so that he can have the same last name as my daughter, spouse and myself.
My situation is my x-husbands name is on the birth certificate, he does have partial custody, but has not seen my son since he was two years old. My "X" has many times stated that he doen't want a relationship with him.
Can I have my son's name changed without it interfering with receiving child support.
Can I alter my son's last name say with a hyphen and my married name, without interfering with child support.
At worst when my son turns 18, can he have his name changed without parental consent. I live in Pennsylvania and not sure about the laws here.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
