get my drivers license renewel
This is not a problem. This happens when changing one's name upon marriage or petitioning for a court-ordered name change. You can show your marriage certificate or the court order. If not, then your drivers license will have to show the name shown on your birth certificate.
A marriage certificate isn't 'filed', its just something you have to get from the city or county you live in. It's like a drivers license - it just shows that the government gave you permission to get married. There's no fraud involved, unless your spouse misrepresented himself when getting the license.
you cant they make a copy of your dl and bc and you need a ssc
After June 1, 2009, you will need a passport. Until then, your drivers license and original birth certificate or certified copy will suffice.
In order to reprint your drivers Ed certificate, you'd have to talk to your drivers Ed company. They might charge you though to have a reprinted copy of the certificate but it's worth a shot. I don't see why they couldn't
You have to change it yourself by sending your marriage certificate to the SS office and drivers licence office ect..
Yes. In states where same-sex marriage is legally recognized, a certificate of marriage is sufficient proof of legal name change. This is true for drivers licenses, voter registration and other instances controlled by state law. By special policies of federal agencies, a same-sex marriage certificate can be used as proof of legal name change even for your US passport and your US Social Security Card. The federal government will recognize a same-sex marriage certificate ONLY for the purpose of legal name change, since state law controls what your legal name is. Once you have your new ID, you can change your name with all the public utilities, banks, and other private companies you do business with, including your employer, also showing your marriage certificate to explain the change. Once you have changed all of your ID, you are free to move to a state where same-sex marriage is NOT recognized, since the new state cannot force you to return to using your maiden name. Keep in mind that once you have changed your name by marriage, the only way to change it back is by divorce decree or court order.
Take the name from your birth certificate.
Yes. If your current legal name is different than your name at birth, you can still obtain a drivers license in the United States. First of all, not all states require birth certificates for drivers licenses. If you want to obtain an "enhanced" or "real ID-compliant" driver's license and your find yourself with a name discrepancy, you will need to present documentation showing your legal name change. This can be accomplished by either showing a court order that legally changed your name, or your marriage certificate. In cases where you have married more than once, and changed your name more than once, you may have to show a divorce decree to clarify the progression of your name changes.
Your birth certificate will not help you. You can enter the US from Mexico with an "enhanced" US drivers license, but only if you are traveling by sea or land, not by air.
