Name changing

We got married on September 7th and due to the government shutdown.. I haven't been able to change my last name yet. It took several weeks for the county to mail me the marriage certificate, and once I received it, the social security office would not allow me to submit my application to change my name. Anyone else out there having the same problem? Any suggestions? I heard that I need to start with the social security office, before I change my name anywhere else so I'm in name changing limbo. I feel like there's still this item on my to-do list hanging over my head.
Thanks

    I went to the Social Security Office and ran into this as well... It is really frustrating. But I was able to go to the BMV and get a new ID with my new name. With that I believe you are able to do just about everything else (Passport, etc). I guess we just sit tight and wait for this whole Shut Down mess to blow over :(
  • The shut down is temporarily over. So I would get this done ASAP because we'll probably be back in the same boat again in February. Good luck!!
