Every State is different but the name change process starts the same; file a name change petition to your local county court clerk's office with your original marriage license or certificate. They will instruct you on the rest of the process.

When you sign the marriage certificate do you sign your maiden name or your married name?

When signing the marriage certificate, you typically sign your maiden name. This is because the certificate documents your legal identity at the time of marriage. After the marriage, if you choose to change your name, you can then sign legal documents with your married name. However, it's always best to check local laws and regulations, as practices can vary by jurisdiction.


Is a widow should submit the marriage certificate to apply fresh pass port?

In the United States, if the widow has not changed her name after the death of her husband and has a passport with her married name, she does not need to submit any name change documents (marriage certificate, etc) with her passport application. She does not need to get a new passport until her old one is about to expire since all her identification documentation will have the same name. However, if the widow has changed her name upon the death of her husband, or marriage to a new husband, she will need to submit a copy of the legal paperwork that changed her legal name. For marriage, a marriage certificate is sufficient; for a name change, a copy of the court certificate should be enough.

If needed, individuals can often update their documents through the appropriate legal channels, such as applying for an amendment to the birth certificate or providing documentation for the name change.
