Hey everyone,

I changed my name when I got married, however my passport was still with my maiden name, and, consequently, my visa came with my maiden name as well. So I believe that my green card will come with my maiden name, am I right?

I am trying to get a driver's license with my married name, but I called to DMV and they said that I would need to change with the immigration because they don't accept a foreign wedding certification with official translation.

Another thing, the SSN card will also come with my maiden name and the SSA attendant said that I need to change with the immigration first.

What should I do to change the name with the immigration? Will it create any issue with other docs?

And when my passport expire I will have to issue another one, but this one will have my married name. Should I wait to change my passport to then change my name with the immigration?

Any suggestions???

Thank you very much!
