Once the adoption is finalized, your lawyer will submit a request to have the birth certificate amended to have you and your husbands (or significant others) name placed on it.
The original birth certificate is then sealed with the rest of the court documents, and an amended birth certificate is issued with the child’s new name and parental information.
