Usually within four (4) weeks or so, the orders are processed, and you will receive two (2) signed and sealed court name change orders in the mail. Typically, if you want more official copies, you can request those when you first turn in your forms, and pay an extra fee.
If you are using a name other than your birth name, or changing the name on your current Maryland license, you must bring the document that initiated the change of name, such as a marriage certificate, divorce decree or court ordered name change, to the MVA to correct your license.
To request a change to a birth certificate, you may email the affidavit and associated paperwork to dvr.corrections@maryland.gov and a representative will contact you directly regarding the request and payment options.
Where to File Petition - To legally change your name through the Maryland courts, file a Petition for Change of Name in the Circuit Court of the county where you live, conduct regular business, are employed, or were born. Contents of Petition - Court Rules require certain information to be contained in the petition.
A marriage certificate, divorce decree, or court order proves a name change. Youll need one of these documents to update your drivers license, Social Security card, and similar documents. Whichever form of proof you have, first take it to your local Social Security office to update your Social Security card.
