Anyone have experience with getting a US passport? I have my birth certificate and valid ID, but the names don't match. I had a court-ordered name change in another state, but don't remember exactly when or where and I don't know how to look it up to order a copy. It was well over a decade ago. My birth state makes it very easy to amend birth certificates, but the processing time is lengthy and I haven't needed to do it yet. It's on my list, but can I get a passport without waiting on that?
I'm not sure you'd be able to get it without your name change; I assume your valid ID has the name you want the passport to have?
I would honestly still say try for it: I took all my documents to the post office and got rejected the first time for one reason or another, and then came back the next week with like the same paperwork and they let me through? Like worst case scenario they turn you away and you have to come back with more documents, I don't think it's the end of the world. They might even be able to help you figure out where to look for your name change.
