If you or a dependent had a name change last year, notify
the Social Security Administration before you file your 2013 tax return with
the IRS. Why? If the name on your tax return does not match SSA records, the
IRS is likely to notify you about the mismatch. Any refund you expected could
be delayed. So if marriage, divorce, or child adoption resulted in a name
change, file "Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Card" with
the SSA to inform them of the change.Saturday, March 8, 2014
