(1) If a first-time Real ID applicant's legal name is different from the name in the document submitted to prove identity and lawful status pursuant to OAR 735-062-0022, the applicant must provide proof of the current legal name sufficient to establish that the applicant is the same person named in the document submitted as proof of identity and lawful status.

(3) DMV may accept an identity document listed in OAR 735-062-0020 as proof of the applicant's current legal name.

Documentary proof of an applicant's legal name change may include, but is not limited to:
(a) An official government-issued marriage document;
(b) A divorce decree;
