I've been dragging my feet on this whole changing my name thing. The biggest reason I haven't done anything about it is that I'm going to a conference in Ireland in the beginning of September and my flight is in my maiden name. I've thought about changing my name on everything except my passport, but I don't even know if this is legal. Does anybody have any experience with this?
I haven't even changed my name on Facebook yet, which apparently MIL doesn't much like. I do plan to do it, but I sort of don't feel ready to get rid of my old name. Is that strange?
Re: Name change questions
Maybe change it on facebook....but I'd leave the rest until after your trip. You have to go to ss first with a copy of your marriage license. Then the DMV. Then you can do your passport and your banks, etc.
I'm going to get my SS changed wednesday..I tried to find it today and got lost haha and I work until after the office closes tomorrow..so wednesday it is haha. Then I'm going to get my DMV as soon as I have the money too
I didn't change my passport b/c our tickets were in my maiden name too, I'll probably just wait to change that until I need it again since we'll have to buy a new one
I don't blame you for not changing your name yet. Your license and flight info do need to match.
I must admit that I am so excited to use my new name. I love my maiden name, but love being married and using a new name. when school starts again in a couple of weeks, i will be mrs. i am heading to do my name change stuff tomorrow.
