OK so I'm about to start the name change process and since I'm off for the summer I figured it'd be easier to just go to the social security office versus mailing the forms. I live in Newark so the closest Social Security office is in Elkton, Maryland. DH said that it doesn't matter since SS cards are not state issued but I wanted to double check with someone who may have already gone through the process. Can I go to Maryland or do I have to go through the New Castle branch since that is where I'm actually living?
