terrible confession...

we've been married almost a year and i'm FINALLY starting to get stuff together to change my name. I totally put it off all year 'cause i didn't want to go through the hassle, but i realize the longer i put it off,the longer the hassle awaits me. So i'm gonna send out for my certified marriage certifcates next week and then i think i'll head to the DMV when i get the copy. I'm dreading going to the social security office, could i just mail everything?

Re: terrible confession...

  • The SS office was pretty easy when I did it. DMV took longer. I also found an online template for change of name form to send to all credit card companies and other bills, magazines, etc. I just filled it out and sent it and a copy to all of them and was good to go. The only thing I have left is my passport. Good luck!

  • if that's terrible, then I'm guilty too, I just got mine changed a month or two ago (actually, DH did it for me...I think he just grabbed everything of mine and mailed it).

    it was surprisingly fast via the mail.

  • I am guilty.  I didn't change me name yet... I guess I need to do that soon.
  • you can do it over the mail??? even the social security card stuff???
  • I didn't change my name until Feb (which since we were tech married May of '07, was a year and a half after we got married).  I just wasn't sure if I wanted to.

    SS office was no problem...I didn't even have to wait that long.  DMV took forever, as usual.

    I still need to do the bank, my school (shouldn't be difficult), and the Army (could be a pain in the arse). 

    I don't really care how mail comes addressed to me, so I doubt I'd bother w/ magazines or anything until I renew my subscription.

    I didn't change my passport and I went out of the country and came back in w/out a problem. =)
