Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You don't need to worry about the name on your W-2, as long as the Social Security number is correct.  You should use the name on record with the Social Security Administration on your tax return.  There is a possibility that your return will be rejected because your name doesn't match IRS records (they use SSA information).  If that occurs, the change your return to your previous name.  It will be due to a delay in update the records, and is not anything to worry about.
