Hello everyone,
My parents' marriage certificate from 1984 mentions my mother's maiden name but her "after marriage" name is left blank.
This is a simple change in surname to that of her husband (my father).
What is the proper process to have it included?
I can provide proofs such as copies of her passport which mentions her "after marriage" name and her husband's name. I can also provide an affidavit from my mother declaring the same.
I had visited the sub-registrar's office in Hyderabad where my parents' marriage was registered but the clerk there told me that it is not possible and that I have to undertake a long winding court process to make the change.
I'd like know if its possible to make this inclusion with a simple application to the sub-registrar?
I'd appreciate your expert advice very much.
Thank you,
GV
