I think you have to call your local ss department. If you look in the phone book under Federal, look for social security. I think you call them, and they send the forms to you. I had to get a form to get my son a new ss card, and they'll send it in the mail. But it takes a while to get the forms. Hope this helps.

You don't have to report your SS card stolen, but you should replace it. You can apply for a replacement by mail if you are too busy to go to the office, but you have to send your ID card in and wait for them to mail it back.  You'd think with identify fraud, SSA would issue you a new SS number, but they won't necessarily do that.  All you can do is monitor your credit history to make sure someone is not opening up new credit cards in your name.

If you have done nothing official to change your name from what you have been given since birth, then that's your legal name.  Marriage does not automatically change your name.  When you marry, you have to notify Social Security or the Dept. of Motor Vehicles, for instance, that you wish to change your name.  I did so when I married my first husband.  When I divorced him and remarried, I did not choose to change my name to that of my second husband, so I did nothing.  Therefore, my current legal name is the name I took when I married my first husband.

If it's like CA, you'll need to amend the original birth cert.  You fill out another form that says you are changing line (what ever) on the original document from A to B (no name, fathers name).\n\nYou may need to have a statement from the father, who knows.\n\nContact the county clerks office for more info.

The method for doing this varies quite a bit based on where you live.  In the U.S., the way it's done in most states is by filing a petition with a local court.  The notice of name change is published in a newspaper usually for several weeks, then the change is made final by the court.  \n\nThe only simpler method is in cases of marriage or domestic partnership.  In these cases, it is enough to simply notify the DMV and Social Security Administration.

I'm going on the indication you mean a change of birthdate and social security number.You can change your social security number in instances where you may have suffered abuse or domestic violence of feel threatened and a need to do so for that reason.You can do this by contacting your nearest social security office or online at socialsecurity.gov - if you can change that for the reasons I listed I believe you could also change your birthdate but may need to provide evidence or a reason for doing so. The following is explanation of help offered by social security.------People in all walks of life can be victims of family violence or harassment, abuse or life-endangering situations. If you are a victim of family violence, Social Security may be able to help you. \n\nPublic awareness campaigns stress how important it is for victims to develop safety plans that include gathering personal papers and choosing a safe place to go. Sometimes the best way to evade an abuser and reduce the risk of further violence may be to relocate and establish a new identity. Following these changes, it also may be helpful to get a new Social Security number. \n\nAlthough Social Security does not routinely assign new numbers, we will do so when evidence shows you are being harassed or abused or your life is endangered. \n\nApplying for a new number is a big decision. It may impact your ability to interact with federal and state agencies, employers and others. This is because your financial, medical, employment and other records will be under your former Social Security number and name (if you change your name). If you expect to change your name, we recommend you do so before applying for a new number.------- End of social security statement the rest if my own advice .You may contact your county clerk of courts or health department and get help with the date of birth change depending on which handles this in your area,

Doesn't sound right.\nI think you have to go to the office of vital statistics and change your social security card to that of your married name you put on the ceritficate.\nCall the office of Vital Statistics in your area or local courthouse. Usually the middle name is dropped and maiden becomes your middle unless you prefer to keep your middle and drop your maiden.

Your legal name is the name that is on your marriage certificate. This is a legal document that can change your name, if you said you wanted it changed. You are also responsible to get the name changed on your Social Security card after you are married. I would get this done as soon as possible or you can get in trouble with the IRS over it.

I've never had to inform the social security folks -- I think they get their info from the IRS. Plus, when I've moved I've just used the forwarding form with the post office so that everything is sent to me. BUT -- here's what the Social Security site states:\n"f you get Social Security benefits you can change your address online by answering a series of questions that have to match our records.\n\nYou can also change your address on the Internet if you have established a permanent password. If you would like to get a password, you can apply online or you can call us at 1-800-772-1213.\n\nIf you do not want to answer the questions that are asked online or you do not have a permanent password, you cannot submit a change of address online. Instead, you can either speak to a Social Security representative by calling our toll-free number at 1-800-772-1213 or you can contact your local Social Security office. You can get addresses and telephone numbers of these offices from the Social Security Office Locator.\n\nIf you are not receiving benefits, Medicare, nor have a claim pending with us, we DO NOT keep a record of your address."

You are limited to one legal name that you can use for official purposes. But, you can change your name at any time so long as you can prove that you are not doing this to avoid debts, prosecution, or for some other illegal purpose. The cost to do this is fairly inexpensive, about $100 to do all the leg work yourself, and up to $1,200 if you have a lawyer do it.\n\nIt is also perfectly legal to change your first or last name unofficially and go by another name or alias, again so long as you are not doing this for illegal purposes. But, you can not possess two drivers licenses or social security cards with two different names on them.
