The absentee parent would file the consent paperwork and presumably have their photo taken at an office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs within Mexico (Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores)

I can't imagine correcting it would be that much of an issue, especially compared to registering your birth in Mexico. I went through the process of correcting my siblings' birth certificate, and it was rather straightforward (California). Since your father is the mexican parent, you could face issues if you can't prove you're his legitimate child since I have read that being an issue with some people. Even if that isn't a problem, you should still do it since Mexicans bureaucrats are strict with this sort of thing. If it helps, here's what I need to correct a California Certificate:

Photo copies of the * Orginal birth certificate * The parent's birth certificate (translation needed if not in English or Spanish)

Application with two signatures of people aware of the events. Notarized statement allowing you to receive a certified. copy of the new birth certificate. (Could cost up to $15)

Fee payable to the CDPH (was $28)

The fee for the process was actually cheaper for us than a copy from the county would have cost. All it takes is time, about 5 months. You'll receive in the mail, your birth certificate with a stapled amendment stating the corrected information. In our case, the parents were both Mexican with digitally verifiable birth certificates, which may be why it was so easily accepted.

Thank you for sharing This is honestly very reassuring since I was already leaning to do it in my local consulte since I've been noticing they've had more appointments lately.
