Anyone do this yet? It looks like if yours is over a year old it is going to be $60 and you have to mail your old one back. Really? That is so expensive. Or am I reading the info wrong? I was going to hold off, but we are going to the Bahamas in the spring and I wanted to get it done sooner than later.

Re: Passport Name Change
The way I read it, if your passport is more than a year old- then you have to pay the standard renewal fee when you change your name. The adult renewal fee is $110. The $60 charge is if you need to expedite the process, and that is in addition to the $110.
Luckily I just got my passport in Feb. I had better apply for the name change quick so that I won't have to pay for a new one.

You should check with the airline. You may be able to tell the airline you got married and change your name with them. Then you could get a new passport. But if you do that, you may have to expedite it to get it in time.
I changed my name with my airline with my frequent flier miles. It was no big deal. Then I can still use my miles with my new name. I would recommend that route.
yeah - it's kind of riduculous, but I'm going to have to pay too.
The only reason I haven't changed my name legally yet is because DH and I are going to Jamaica in Oct and there is no way I could get a new passport (well, SS card and DL and then passport) before then.
