Summary
When you legally change your name -- whether it's due to a marriage, divorce or the simple desire for change -- it's important to spread the word to companies and government agencies. Use this form to change your personal records, identity cards and documents.
Important to Know
- Check your state's rules regarding name changes.
- It's important that your state's DMV and the Social Security Administration accept your name change -- afterward, it should be smooth sailing.
- You cannot change your name to defraud your creditors, for any illegal purpose, to benefit economically from someone else's name, or to invade someone's privacy.
