Legal Question in Traffic Law in Florida

New License in New State

Where to start. I am recently separated. My NYS license is still in my married name as per my lawyer until the divorce. I never changed my social security card. That is is my maiden name. I am now moving to Florida and would like to apply for a license in my maiden name. What documents will I need to do that and is it even possible?

You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

That is a question you will have to ask the Division of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. Their web site which contains the drivers handbook can be found at:
