10-07-2010, 04:45 PM

Hey,

am planning to change my first name.can you please let me know what all documents i need to submit to change my name in SSN,Passport and visa.
If I make a Kerala Gazetter publish, is that enough to change my name in these 3 documents?

currently i am on H4 visa.

Thanks
Surya

Follow what the name change procedure is for on your passport first. Without that being done, SSA will not change your name.

I am not a lawyer and you need to consult with one to validate any info posted on the forum and discuss your case specifics. H1b Question? Read the FAQ first.
