Have you legally changed your child 's name as a result of adoption, a court order or some other reason?
Yes she was adopted and took her stepfather's name.
Well then you definitely need to tell Social Security so that you can get a corrected card.
What documents must I present?
We accept the Final adoption decree with the new name as proof.
I was just thinking about asking about  Social Security. What if you don't have all of the necessary documents?
If we don't receive the documents within 10 days we can look at other documents as long as they aren't expired and show your name and identifying information such as a birthday or a photo.
What counts as proof of identity?
Any document that isn't expired that has information about you such as a driver's license or passport.
What specific cards show proof of identity?
You can use a U.S. driver's license, a state ID card, or a U.S. passport.
Am I able to request a replacement card online?
