Hi thanks for this thread. Would you be briefly able to explain the process and timeline for legal name change as well as the passport change? The latter is only affected by this as the former is run by states right? It is possible to do a passport before a legal name change?

Sure is! Get your Passport gender change done now under your old name, you can send it back in under the new rules for free within one year to get a name change correction. Rules to change your name vary by state.
