I have a question for those who have had a name change, such as registering in the US, or have had similar experiences with SSN, DMV.

I was in the US on OPT which expires 2/29/2024 and I married a US citizen in the US in November 2023. I am currently in the pending period of obtaining a green card.

Since I am on OPT, my driver's license will also expire on 2/29 tied to that, so I went to the DMV with the I-797c I received in the green card application process and the EAD for my life until 2/29, hoping to get my license before it expires.
They accepted those two as documents for renewal of my license, but to my foolishness, I had forgotten to change my SSN name and was told that I could not renew because my name in the system was still my maiden name.
(I-797c was issued with my new last name. )

I panicked and went to the Social Security office to try to change my name, but was told, "Your current EAD until 2/29 has too little validity left to change your name." They also did not accept my I-797c and Marriage Certificate.

I tried to apply for AB60 because I need a car to live without, but one DMV said, "No, because it's a pending green card period and you don't qualify as someone who can apply in the first place." Another DMV said "I-797c can't do it, you need to bring your I-797" etc. I am confused.

Long story short, my question is
・ Is there any way to get a license under these circumstances?
・ Once the I-797 arrives, can I use it to rename my SSN ？ Has anyone had such an experience ？ Will I have to wait endlessly for the new EAD to arrive … tears

Rough question Sorry for the sketchy question, but if anyone can lend me some wisdom, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.

You can get more live information by asking a
specialist in the field than by asking the general public about important things.

There is a group on Facebook called "Japanese in America", so you can ask there.
Everyone answers kindly. （ Because it is my real name ？ ）

You cannot expect a proper reply here. It is a waste of time.
But very occasionally there is no useful information ・ ・ ・.

The first post was when someone told me to go through the process

and I thought that there would be a lot of problems and the process would not go ahead.

Are you waiting for a Work Permit ？ I hear a lot of people say they got it right after applying for a GC.
With this, you would get a new expiration date for your SS.　

I think you can change the name on the license at a later date. Licenses ＜ generally can be renewed ＞ within 60 days of expiration, but there may be exceptions.

I think you can change the name on your license or SS by submitting a change of name form later. You could try Online if it's a bad idea.

Sorry if I didn't understand your question well.
