Changing name at Social Security office

I believe it's in Freeport, can someone please confirm where it is and what I need-just the marriage certificate, right? Thank you! Gee, I've been married for 7 months now...guess I'm a little slow!!

yes-

the original marriage certificate..and if you have your SS card that would probably help too. They will give you a receipt indicating your request for the change and the new card will come in the mail.

A Tip...

I went to the office in Lindenhurst...its a small office and they were open at 8:50 and I was the first person in and I was out at 9:05! it was pretty painless. Also, DO NOT go at the begining of the month...too many people there getting their checks. Here is the link the find a local SS office. http://s3abaca.ssa.gov/pro/fol/fol-home.html good luck Lisa
