Free state guides
Name change after marriage, state by state.
The steps are federal, but the fees, forms, and rules are your state's. Pick yours for the exact sequence — Social Security first, then your DMV, passport, and voter registration — verified against official sources.
States marked Form pre-filled are the 21 where the Kit fills your state's actual DMV form, every box. Everywhere else we link the official form and fill everything federal.
