Does anyone here know how long does it take for SSA to verify a change of name from single to married? I had my name changed a couple of days ago and went to DMV this morning to obtain an instruction permit but they said my SS# with my new married name in it is not yet verified.. Called SSA when we got home and they said it will take 4weeks because they have to verify my Greencard to DHS..

Your response are highly appreciated, thank you!

Somewhat related, but one of my friends had a name change for a different reason. For the new name to be approved by SSA and to receive a new SS card after verification with the DHS or USCIS, it did take him about 5 weeks. And yes the wait seemed too long! :)

I would suggest applying for the DL after getting the new card in mail.

Thank you sttom.. I have one more question though, does it also take 5weeks for SSA to verify the change of name or it's just the new card that takes 5weeks to process.. I'm just wondering if there's a way to know or number to call and ask SSA if they have verified my name? In that way I can just go ahead to DMV again and take the test..

The new card took about 5 weeks to arrive by mail. So I am not sure what portion of the 5 weeks was to get the card mailed.

But one thing i can think of is to sign in to http://www.ssa.gov/myaccount/ (As you might be aware or may have noticed SSA stopped sending paper statements a couple of years back and this is the way to keep track of your "contributions").

Depending on how tightly integrated this website is with what DMV uses to verify with SSA, this might help you with what you are looking for.

It only took 5 days for me to get my new card with my new last name but then again I'm the USC. It only took Mike about the same time to get his card as well. He applied for it less than 2 weeks upon arrival.

Good luck!

That's what the customer service told us, it's quicker for the USC but for Greencard holders it takes about 5weeks :unsure: .. I applied for SS# upon arrival as well and when I got my greencard last week I went to the SSA's office for a name change.. Didn't realized it would take that long for them to verify/mail my new card :wacko:
