last name change - passport renewal

[sway_arul]

I'll be renewing my passport in indian embassy shortly. I am planning to change my last name to my husband's first name as its done in India.
Any idea if its enough to just change in passport and let the DMV, SSN and IRS know about my new name.

Or is it required that i should change it in court so that in future there wont be issues for our GC ?

Hi All,

I change my name after coming to USA as my Surname was missing in my Indian Passport as my name is pretty big.
So when my passport got expired I change my name in Indian passport and letter applied for H1B extension.
I've below documents with new name on it:
SSN Card
NJ State Drivers License
H1B Approval notice (I-797)

But some financial institutes are not willing to change my name with those documents & they need Court Order.
Could some one please let me know how can I get Court Order and how much its going to cost.

I appreciate your reply and help...

Thanks,
-Rao.
