Anyone else not change their last name yet?!

Almost 4 months now, and I doubt it will happen anytime soon. I need to go add a middle name before I do it and I'm just taking my sweeeet time on all of it LOL.

<- I changed it on my license and SS card, but not my passport. I'm too lazy and taking too many trips! After Jamaica though, I swear it!

Yeah I'm putting it off for no reason, but it's such a pain because I have to take a day off or use a day off to do it because of hte hours, bleh!

Re: Anyone else not change their last name yet?!

we came back from our HM on July 12th. On July 13th I went to the DMV and the SS office and got all of that done.
However, I knew that if i didn't do it that week, i would have no more time off left for the rest of the year and i didn't want to wait until next year to get my name changed - especially since i wanted to go under DH's insurance

Re: Anyone else not change their last name yet?!

I changed mine a week ago (only ss, license and credit cards)! Everyone says congratulations when you change it and ask you when you got married. When I told them we've been married for 8 months, they were like, 'Oh...so you've been married for a while now.' I was a little slow!!!

You didn't need your new SS card to show the DMV with your new last name?

Yea, when you get get your marriage license you tell them wether your changing your last name or not. If you are, you need to make the changes yourself. Like DMV, passport, Social security, bank accounts, credit cards etc.

Ok.. So my NEW last name appears on the Marriage license?
Or just tell them YES i will change my last name BUT nothing changes UNTIL I change my things?
