Name Change?

If you hyphenated your last name and DH last name do you still have to go to change everything at motor vehicle and social security?

I am thinking of doing this----I really want to know what I need to do!

Yes, legally it is a new last name so you have to make the change.

I wish they still allowed us to ADD a second last name without the hyphen - too bad that's not an option anymore.

Go to Social Security
pretty sure I got the new card in two weeks

then go to DMV
I got new lis. right there

Go to banks...
My bank still cant seem to get the name right on my card...
they put Nicole R. last name
instead of Nicole R***-R***
oh well, it seems to work fine

then call credit cards- some will let you do it over the phone some you have to provide proof

Do your passport- I waited and now it's taking forever
