Name Changes
Social Security Administration Requirements
What the SSA states: “Record the name and number of each employee as
they are shown on the employee's social security card. If the employee's name is not correct as shown on the card (for example, because of marriage or divorce), the employee should request an updated card from the SSA. Continue to report the employee's wages under the old name until the employee shows you the updated social security card with the corrected name.”
Social Security Administration Requirements
What this means: When an employee inquires about having their name
changed on their check, they should be asked to produce some documentation to show that they have already changed their name with the SSA. If the employee has no such documentation, they should be encouraged to visit their local SSA office and complete the process there first.
Name Change Process
Form 123 – Notice of Name Change
Name Change Process
12 (static) transaction in PMIS Names must be changed in two places: The Payroll
Master File and PMIS. A change in one of these systems will not carry to the
other; both must be changed. When an employee is hired, the Payroll Master File loads
information from PMIS. Once it is loaded, changes in one file will not affect the other file.
