Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi @Robvirginia1

 

What you have described is not uncommon for someone who changed their name with Social Security relatively recently. It does take some time for the IRS to update their database with information from Social Security. 

 

If your daughter is still experiencing this issue more than a year later, she might want to contact IRS and Social Security to ensure that the change went through and is being processed correctly. But these changes do not happen immediately - they are processed in bulk once or twice a year. 

 

I hope this information is helpful!
