I haven’t started the process of changing my name and gender marker on any of my documents yet. Between having my birth certificate from a very anti-trans state, and now the Supreme Court allowing the government to deny us changing our gender markers on passports, is there even a point in me trying to change my documents? I feel like, best case scenario I have a mix of updated and out-of-date documents, which feels like it would just create more confusion and difficulty.

    Social security stopped allowing changes when trump. They allowed it before and presumably will again sometime after.

    From my understanding social security gender is the official gender on federal documents. And there will be issues if you have mismatched genders on federal documents.

    EDLs are issued by states, the realid law leaves it to the states to determine what info is correct. Real states will issue EDLs with correct gender markers.
