everytime my husband and I get mail from the goverment they address me as crystal instead of my name!! apparently to them my mom named me Crystal and not Katie. guess she didnt get the memo.
-
That's funny, but seriously you should contact them. I'm not sure what you are getting, but I would want my correct name listed if it's coming from the government
-
You ought to contact them. Your name should be correct.
-
I know what you mean, my hubbies name is Juan A. and every mail comes to the name of Juana
-
A couple years back the government was under the impression my dad was dead and sent a bunch of forms etc. to that effect. He was sure surprised to hear about his passing. I guess all it takes is a typo somewhere down the line.
-
My name is my name ...even if other people try to change it...
I do not let them
-
You should contact them.I had some problems when i got my first ID.
-
I defintely will.
-
Leave it to the government to do something similar like that!! I would try to get it straightened out though asap

Then this is something you need to get straightened out. Could be somebody used your SS number somewhere along the way. It seems insignificant to a lot of people but some stupid mexican was able to change the name on all my magazine subscriptions one year. They were still coming to MY house but with her name. I guess the next step was to change the address. SMH I finally got it changed back. That was all that happened. I keep a close eye on my stuff. My credit cards, financial reports, everything.
-
Wow that is so weird, I wonder how that happened,
-
That's awfully nice of the government to give you a special nickname. How lucky you must feel. And yes, as the others have suggested here, I would recommend looking into that so it doesn't cause you problems.
-
You really should get that checked out, as it could affect Medicare, Social Security, all sorts of stuff.
:rose:

sort of been there,,,,, My given name is "Teresa Lynn " but the social security office sent me my social security card with my name spelled "Theresa Lynn" My mom tried to change it for years ,,, birth cert,,,, baptism cert and nothing. She finally got them to change it when I started school. Then when I got married and changed my Last Name it started all over again with the first name,,,,,,,,,,,,, they kept putting an H in and I don't have an H in my name. Took them almost two months to get it changed again. But at least it is right ,,,,, for the time being.
And it will effect things you need if your social security is needed !!!!

According to the government, my dad is a girl. Thought THAT was pretty interesting! And, no, he isn't a trans. He really is a male.

I have no words. Is it correct on his birth certificate?
Now I wonder when people decide they are trans and change to the other sex do they actually change it with the government? Oh my. Now my head hurts.
-
That's so typical of the government to mess things up.

Wow....interesting to hear about these mixups....I wonder how common they are and how much they cost to fix!
-
That is strange, I think I would check into that. Have you ever looked at your birth certificate to see what is on it. There might be a interesting story behind this.

Could be identity theft? I would contact whatever agency it is that is sending it to you & have it straightened out immediately... nothing to chance with.

hahahaha, that's quite comical. The Government and my Governor can kiss my butt after this Nor Easter snow storm we had this past Thursday. Not one snow plow or salt truck in site and my normal 1.5 hour commute home turned into a 10 hour commute!! It was horrible! EF the Gov!!
