If the adoption is legal, then you may change your child 's name.
It hasn't officially gone through yet.
Is your child employed at the moment?
No he is looking for work though.
Has the name been legally changed yet? There might be consequences if you omit telling us when the name change goes through.
His name is in the process of being changed but it hasn't gone through yet. Do I need documents for him?
Do I need documents for him in his new name?
If you possess an unexpired identity document with your child 's new name, that may be acceptable.
I have one but it has expired, is that okay?
If it is all that you have then we will accept an identity document in your child 's old name.
We are waiting for DHS approval for our family to work, can you still proceed with the name change?
