   Republic Act No. 9255: (An Act Allowing Illegitimate Children to Use the Surname of their Father,
   amending for the Purpose Article 176 of Executive Order No. 209, Otherwise Known as the “Family
   Code of the Philippines”) was signed by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo on 4 February 2004 and took
   effect on 19 March 2004, fifteen days after its publication in newspapers of general circulation on 4 March
   2004. This law is a consolidation of House Bill No. 44371 and Senate Bill No. 25102 of the Twelfth
   Congress of the Philippines.
   The Revised IRR shall apply to all illegitimate children born on or after 19 March 2004, the effectivity of
   R.A. No. 9255. This includes all unregistered births and registered births under the surname of the mother.
   Illegitimate children born on 3 August 1988 to 18 March 2004 may still be acknowledged by the
   father through an Affidavit of Admission of Paternity (AAP) or Private Handwritten Instrument (PHI) but
   cannot use the surname of the father under Republic Act No. 9255. However, a petition in court may be filed
   in order that the child can use the surname of the father. However, for COLBs of illegitimate children born
   on 3 August 1988 to 18 March 2004 which were processed based on AO No. 1 Series of 2004 of RA 9255
   prior to the issuance of this revised IRR, are considered valid.

   Legitimation is a remedy by means of which those who in fact were not born in wedlock and should,
   therefore, be considered illegitimate, are, by fiction, considered legitimate, it being supposed that they were
   born when their parents were already validly married.
   Is the act of providing legitimacy status to an illegitimate child through subsequent marriage of the parents,
   provided that there were no legal impediments when the child was conceived and born.
    1.   Children born to couples who are not legally married or of common-law marriages;
    2.   Children born of incestuous marriages;
    3.   Children born bigamous marriages;
    4.   Children born of adulterous relations between parents;
    5.   Children born of marriages void for reason of public policy under Art 38 of the Family Code;
    6.   Children born of couples below 18, whether there are married (which married is void) or not; and
    7.   Children born of other void marriages under Art. 15 unless otherwise provided. (OCRG Cir. No. 89-13
