  • I got divorced and in the decree it did not grant me permission to change my name. I took the decree to the Soc Sec office and the still processed it. I have a new Soc card and drivers license with my maiden name. But keep having trouble as it was never officially changed in the courts. Do I have to file for a name change and pay the fee or is there a way to add it into the decree so I can officially go back to my maiden name?

  • Does anyone know how long (even ballpark) it takes AHCCCS to follow up on a fraud report? I sent one in on April 1st, and the fraudulent person is *still* getting services!

  • Can one apply for and be granted social security disability benefits while already drawing social security retirement benefits?
  • My husband wants to adopt my daughter, which is his stepdaughter. Her father has been out of her life for 7 years and makes no contact. Would he have to give up parental right or can he adopt her without us having to contact him?
