I am a newly graduate from Philippines and I'm a greencard holder. I've already submitted my request and other forms in my school to be mailed directly to the California Board of Nursing. I just got married after graduation. The records that I have to the school (TOR,diploma,etc..) is using my maiden name, but the 3 forms from the California Board of Nursing that I've submitted to the school, I used my married name. My question is, I haven't submitted my application for NCLEX because I dont know if is it ok to use my maiden name instead of my married name because my identification i.d here in California is using my maiden name. and my only legal document to present the change of name is a copy of marriage certificate issued only by the office of civil registrar of city hall of cavite city. i dont have a copy of marriage certificate issued by NSO because the process take about few months.can i use my maiden name in my application although i used my married named for the 3 forms i passed in school, eventually to be mail by board of registered nurse?
i hope i addressed my concerns clearly... pls help... thanks a lot..:wink2:
