Changing name on SS card with I-751 receipt letter?

[chestnutt 10]

Hello!

 

I received my receipt for filing my I-751. My 2 year green card is in my maiden name, however I filed I-751 with my married name and the receipt came with my married name on it. Is this enough proof to go to a SS office to get my name changed on my SS card? Then I need to go and renew my license as it expires when my 2 year green card does.

 

Thanks for the help!

Why don't you just use your marriage certificate?

Take you new LPR card and marriage certificate to both, Social Security Administration and local MVD for your drivers license.

I tried to change it with the SSA a couple of years ago and they said my name with USCIS is my maiden name so I couldn't change to my married name. Wondering if now that I have the letter of receipt for I-751 in my married name if that's good enough for SSA.

I only just applied for the 10 year green card so I'm sure I won't have that for a year or so...is the receipt letter saying my permanent residence status has been extended for a year good enough to change with the SSA?

 

Thank you
