So it appears that my GC will be arriving with my maiden name. That is if it really arrives as expected, considering the problems I have had. I don't want to file a I-90 just to change the name since it is a conditional GC, so I was wondering if I can still get my SSN with married name, and a new Driver's licence, etc. by showing them the marriage certificate. I really would like to have the same name as my husband already. Besides I have been applying for jobs with my married name.

I went to the DMV and was able to get a new driver's licence by showing them a certified copy of my Marriage Licence.

When i went to the Social Security office, however, they would not update my records to show my new name since I had not recieved my EAD yet.

You will likely have problems if your GC is not in the same name as your other documents.. I would recomend just getting it fixed.

So even if you already have a SSN they won't update it? I have my EAD already, but I want a new card that doesn't have the stamp on it.
