I want to change my name. Indian consulate says that i need to run an ad in news paper in US and in india, and after 4 weeks of running the ad, they will issue me a new passport with new name.
Now to run the ad, local news paper company says that they need a court order, otherwise they cannot print this ad. When I called local civil court in New Jersey, they said, they cannot change my name as they DONOT have jurisdiction as I am NOT a citizen. (I am a green card holder).
Anyone else has faced this situation ? Or can someone suggest me what to do ?

Thanks in advance
