You don't change your name until after you are married and you only do this if you wish. There will be a small box on the marriage license that you will check if you intend to change your name. AFTER the wedding you go to all the important places like the bank, Social security, DMV, schools to change to your new name. It takes a couple of days to get it done. Make sure you have your license with you, your birth certificate and social security card. Start with the DMV and go to the social security because you will need a photo ID for the SS.
If you never married, you cannot collect on his social security.
