Can you get your license changed once SS is changed?

driver's license depends on the state. Some states are easy and require a letter from a doctor or therapist. Some require the letter from the surgeon. The SSA change is pretty much nation wide that is the cool thing :)

Christine McGinn (love that woman!) did my surgery last November, and I've put off my social security gender marker change.....lots of other things going on in my life. I was just about to start the court order, for vital records, for ss, yadayadayada, when I saw this on facebook. Whoa! What! No ->-bleeped-<-! I'm going next week with my letter! Hoo ray for everyone's hard work!
