A parent; or(ii)
The registrant’s legal guardian; or(C)
The legal representative of the persons listed in paragraphs (A) or (B) of this subsection with a notarized statement from the person stating that the legal representative is authorized to act for them in this matter.(2)
A registrant may not request an administrative name change under this rule if the registrant’s name on the record of live birth has previously been amended, except for clerical or typographical errors.(3)
Intentionally left blank —Ed.(a)
The administrative request shall be supported by a form prescribed by the state registrar of the Center for Health Statistics that provides the information needed to:(A)
Establish the identity of the applicant;(B)
Establish the relationship between the applicant and the registrant;(C)
Identify the record of live birth to be amended; and(D)
Specify the changes requested.(b)
Information required on the application to identify the correct record of live birth to amend shall be the same information required to purchase a certified copy of a vital record in OAR 333-011-0273 (Amended Records in Support of Gender Identity).(c)
The form must clearly identify the current name on the record of the live birth and the new name as it will appear on the record.(A)
If a new first name is not specified, the first name will remain unchanged on the record of live birth.(B)
If a new middle name is not specified, the middle name will remain unchanged on the record of live birth.(C)
If a new last name is not specified, the last name, including suffix if any, will remain unchanged on the record of live birth.(d)
