Legal Question in Family Law in Philippines

Good Afternoon,

Ask ko lang po kasi since birth ang gamit ko sa mother surname na po kasi hindi kasal ang nanay at tatay ko. Nawalan po kami ng communication sa father ko kaya hindi agad naayos ang papers ko since birth ngaun na nagkaroon na po kami ng communication ng father ko gusto po naming dalawa ng father ko na gamitin na po ang surname nya, nagbigay na po ang father ko ng affidavit of paternity to use the surname of the father and acknowledgement of paternity kaso pinag-isa nya po sa isang papel ang sabi po ng munisipyo kailangan pong paghiwalayin ang AUSF at Acknowledgement of paternity. Eh kailangan ko din po kasing ayusin ang Citizenship ko po gusto po kasi ng father ko maging US Citizen din po ako kasi sya po pinanganak sa US. Ano po kaya ang pwede ko pong gawin?

You have to resort to filing a petition for cancellation/correction of entries on your Certificate of Live Birth in so far as your surname and your father's name are concerned.
