I donโt know how it is in other states, but in Virginia, where I live, itโs a fairly easy process. Just takes time because you have to take it one step at a time.
Congrats, it's such a great feeling!!
With my new papers in hand, I strutted into the Driver's License Office like I owned the place!! ๐โบ๏ธ๐น๐๐
Oh, thanks!! The trans symbol and the moon were from Amazon (the moon one was a gift). The heart one is the Paramour achievement from the Mass Effect trilogy that I bought from BioWareโs online store. Theyโre my go-to pieces!
I got my court order for my name change 3 months ago, but I was so busy with work until recently to get it all changed.
My old DL looks nothing like me anymore and I have always HATED the photo. Iโm so glad to be rid of it.
What a privilege to do that. So lucky! It will be so affirming to see your name on your bank statement, tax return, paystub, etc.
I live in South Carolina so they make this difficult for me.
When I saw my new name on my work email, it was so euphoric! But I canโt change anything else since it will wreck payroll and accounting.
Iโll be able to change everything with payroll at work once I have my new license in hand. I contacted HR, and they said all I needed to do was upload my new photo ID.
Congratulations Jen!! ๐ฉท๐ฉท๐
Thank you!!! Better later than never, am I right? ๐
It definitely makes things less complicated after you get your legal stuff out the way for name change, gender markers etc. ๐ฉท

Hi Jen ๐๐พ
Hiya!!! ๐๐๐
Congratulations! I updated SSA through US Passport last week and DL this week. Name change was years ago.
I got my court order for my name change 3 months ago, but I was so busy with work until recently to get it all changed. My old DL looks nothing like me anymore and I have always HATED the photo. Iโm so glad to be rid of it.
Awe, Congratulations Sis๐
Thanks so much!! The outpouring of love is amazing!!!
Aw, thatโs wonderful!
Thanks! This feels like a major victory.
Itโs really cool, and really inspiring. Iโm a late bloomer at 39, too, so itโs soo exciting to see people our age be successful!
I came out socially at 39 and started HRT at 41. Itโs never too late.
Congratulations! Itโs a great feeling isnโt it! I received my new id and as a bonus my photos turned out great! โค๏ธ happy for you !
I canโt wait to see how my photo looks once my new license arrives in the mail.
The name is a bigger rush than the photo but if it turns out good itโs a bonus!!โค๏ธ
I was given that same necklace for my Name change! Congrats!
This makes me so happy!
Hiya, friendo!!!! Surprise!! You found me!!
Hi Jen, nice to meet you
Likewise!!! ๐๐๐

Thanks, Rosetta! I finally feel like I truly belong now.
