• Your current full legal name.
• The name you would like to change to.
• Your mailing address or a mailing address where you can receive mail.
• The address of your father and/or mother, or if deceased, the address of up to two other nearest living relative(s).
• The county, city, and state where you were born (or country if not the US). *We've provided help in the interactive forms to help you find the county if you know the city and state.

Note: You will be taken to our partnering site, “LawHelp Interactive”.

Don't forget, you must have the Adobe Flash Player to use the interactive forms.

If you don’t have all of the required information, you can still use the interactive forms to fill in the information you do have. If you set up a free and confidential user name and password for the interactive forms, you can start your form, save your answers, and finish completing the interactive forms when you have the remaining needed information. Or, you can complete as much of the information as possible, take your forms to your local CAO office, and ask for assistance with filling in the remaining needed information.
