Have all the original certificates ( birth , marriage and so on ) handy, they will not keep anything other than the application.

I got all those docs with me but they only asked for my GC... It won't hurt to have them handy. You'll never know when you'll need them.

Depends, if you are going to apply in the same name as what is on the SSN record, all you need to take is the I-551 card. If you need a name change, take your marriage certificate and I-551 card. If the marriage certificate doesn't have something that can be compared to the SSN record, e.g. age, date of birth, you will need other documents.

Only the marriage document (foreign or domestic) is needed to establish the name change if it meets the following criteria:

-- The new name can be derived from the marriage document, i.e. bride
takes the groom’s last name, groom takes bride’s last name, compound
name (with or without hyphen) of each spouse’s original name for
either or both parties.

Note: The type of name change requested must also be allowable under state law, i.e. groom taking bride’s last name.

-- The marriage occurred within the past two years
-- The marriage document shows sufficient identifying information
(e.g., biographical data such as age, date of birth or parent's
names), and
-- The identifying information matches the information on his/her
current Social Security number (Numident) record.

The applicant may need to submit an identity document in the old name along with the marriage document if:

-- The marriage occurred within the last two years and has biographical
information, e.g., age, date of birth or parent's names which does
not match our records, e.g., the SSN record.
-- The marriage occurred within the last two years, but does not show
biographical information, or
-- The marriage occurred over two years ago (with or without
biographical information.

The identity document used to establish the old name must match the name on the current SSN record. The identity document is acceptable even if over two years old or expired.

In name change situations when evidence of identity in the old name is required, e.g., name change occurred more than 2 years ago and the applicant does not have any acceptable evidence of identity in the old name with him or her at the time the SSN application is filed, we can request the following documentation to process the name change:

1. Name change document (e.g., marriage document) showing the old name that agrees with the name on the latest Numident record (Numident) (e.g., maiden name), and

2. Acceptable evidence of identity in the new name (name to be shown on the SSN card), excluding marriage document if it was submitted as the name change document and

3. Verification of identifying information (SSN, name(s) on latest Numident record, date of birth, place of birth, parents’ names) from the latest Numident record.

If these three documentation requirements are not met, the name change request cannot be processed under this new policy. Evidence of identity in the old name would need to be submitted per EM-06064.

Note: Refer the Social Security office personnel to EM-06064, which was issued 10/02/2006 and EM-07045, which was issued 07/03/2007 for the current procedures regarding name changes based on marriage and divorce.
