AND

court ordered / legal document (acceptable forms include a marriage license, social security card, birth certificate, legal passport, certification of U.S. citizenship, employment authorization documents, or Native American tribal document).

As necessary, you may be asked to provide additional documentation to support your request for a name change.

The name change form may be found under printable forms.
