NC-330

This page assumes you want to change both your name and gender, and that you only want to update your birth certificate. If not, it should be self-explanatory which options need to be changed.
 

The NC-330 form will be your court order once the judge finishes filling out the form and signs it. In order to prevent mistakes, you have to fill out part of the order.

  • Under PETITION FOR RECOGNITION OF CHANGE OF GENDER AND SEX IDENTIFIER, check the two boxes labeled AND CHANGE OF NAME, and AND ISSUANCE OF NEW CERTIFICATES.
  • If you're changing your name, check the box next to number 3, stating that you included a request to change your name in the petition.
  • For number 9, select the gender you want to change to.
  • If you'd like a name change to be shown on your court order, check the box next to number 10.
    • If you're changing your name as part of this court order, check the is changed to box and put the name you'd like to change to after (new name).
    • If you've already changed your name previously, you're not changing it again in this court order, and you would like your previous name change displayed on this court order, check the was previously changed by court decree box and put the name your previous court order changed you to, after (name). If you do this, you will have to attach a copy of your previous name change court decree.
  • Leave everything else blank. The judge will fill in anything else that needs to be filled in.
