I may have completely missed this... but the Biden admin just quietly changed the way you update your sex marker at the social security office. You now need NO evidence required to change the sex designation at the social security office! This is huge!
Full social security change policy is here... This was one of the HARDEST things to change at the social security office for me! I actually haven't done it yet because they didn't accept my NP HRT administrator letter, so I waited til I was postop. secure.ssa.gov/poms.nsf/lnx/0…
@ErinInTheMorn I feel like I’m missing something about this change. Your card doesn’t have a gender marker on it, just name and ssn. I changed mine like two years ago by just showing my court ordered name and gender change. Is this different somehow?
@ErinInTheMorn Looks like we can’t do non-binary yet, but hopefully sometime soon?
@ErinInTheMorn while this is great, i’m concerned drawing attention to it will make the terfs and transphobes demand they change it
@ErinInTheMorn Does this affect birth certificates by any chance? (I live in NYS)
@ErinInTheMorn @ShitpostingVoid We’ll be allowed to self declare the ‘X’ marker in 2023 as well 😊
