    Default How to Update a Social Security Card After Changing Your Child's Last Name

    My question involves name change laws in the State of: New Jersey

    After my child’s 1st birthday, my husband and I legally changed their birth certificate to have their last name hyphenated, legally giving him/her mine and my husband’s last names. This was changed/updated from their original birth certificate with only stated my husband’s last name.

    Now that I have a correct and legally updated birth certificate, what documents do I need to update their social security card?

    Thank you!

    Whatever documents the SS office asks you for when you call them and ask what documents you need.

    Mr. K's link is definitive, but the short answer is it has to be done in person at a SS office. Bring the court order.
