@Greta ****

or never ! change your name other than the one given to you at birth😅🙏👏

@Jeffrey ********

I’m glad to hear that. After talking to the 2 banks here, and getting feedback back from you guys, I think the wisest thing would be to process my name change with my passport. I just was attached to my identity as my name given at birth and especially after a divorce I wanted to keep my married name just so my daughter & I had the same last name. 😊. But I'll change my passport because i do want to return to Thailand long term. I"ll have my old expired passports for my memories….

@Kool ******

no, wasn’t aware. I thought you could get that visa from whatever country you happened to be visiting. Well that shoots down applying in Penang.

@Mark *****

because it’s all linked to the name used on social security number.

@Mark *****

2 banks, CHASE & BoA said impossible….😨

@Andy *********

oh thank you! That sounds like best course. And my ex is a retired CA lawyer so ex parte won’t be too bad😅

@Henrik ****

then there’d be no fun being part of an “advice” platform on FB🤣

@Wayne ********

I wish it had😅.

@John ********

I have my marriage license from 1990. Would it matter the marriage was dissolved in 2000?

@Nigel *********

I tried. But everything is linked to social security number. Can’t have 2 different names linked to SSN. 😨
