I’m a native Virginian trying to get 🇲🇽 citizenship via my dad who was born there. DC consulate told me I’ve gotta change my dad’s name on my birth certificate to match the one on his Mexican birth certificate (1 last name to 2). I applied to do so via the Virginia Department of Health, and they sent me back a letter that I had to go to the county circuit court and petition the judge to allow me to. Anybody else had a similar circumstance, and what should I include in my petition? Should I run my petition by a lawyer, and if so what type?
