Military brides/wives please help!
I'm probably jumping the gun worrying about this but how easy/difficult was it for you ladies that are already married to change your name on your drivers license and social security card? We're getting married in May and a few days after I will be moving to NC where my fiancé is stationed and need my SS card to match my DL so I can get an ID and enrolled in DEERS and all that fun stuff. As if moving wasn't causing me enough anxiety this is just adding onto it. Help please!
Re: HELP!
In NC (I lived there two years, including when I was married) the best way to do it is to go to the SS office first, wait 24 hours the to the drivers license bureau, then the car registration/ title agency (if you have a car). In my NC county these were all separate locations and things needed to be changed in that order. You also need the official marriage license for all of those name changes. Good luck! If you specific NC questions happy to help.
Take your hard copies to get into DEERS first and then change your DL and SS card.
Adding a dependent:
TO ADD A SPOUSE: ORIGINAL MARRIAGE LICENSE, SPOUSE'S PHOTO ID, BIRTH CERTIFICATE AND SOCIAL SECURITY CARD. TO ADD CHILDREN YOU NEED BIRTH CERTIFICATE AND SS CARD, STEP CHILDREN NEED THE SAME + MARRIAGE LICENSE EVEN IF SPOUSE IS IN THE SYSTEM.
