My Birth Certificate & SS card have my name spelled differently. Which name do I put on a name change form?


I'm filling out a court petition for a name change in New York State. My social security and drivers licence have my name spelled one way, but my birth certificate has it spelled another way. Which spelling do I use on my petition and is it going to be an issue?

Your birth certificate is the underlying legal source for your identity. All the other names will go away when the legal name change alters the name your are legally charged with on your birth certificate; your new documents will be changed to reflect the info from the name change, so the SS and DR don't matter

Not much can be said other than the first guy is correct. Your birth certifacte is the basis of your identity for all else. So that name is your legal name.
