Have you or your employer received a notice from the Social Security Administration (SSA) that says the gender on your SSA records does not match the gender your employer has recorded for you?  Transgender people know these notifications as "gender no-match letters" that can out transpeople at work and place us at great risk for discrimination or even violence.

Back in 2008, I had changed my name and my employer changed everything including the gender marker.  And yes, work recieved the "Gender No-Match" Letter.  HR informed me of the letter and I asked her what would happen now and she said nothing.  She had already shreded  it.

I'm glad I don't have this problem because I don't live in the US.
