You enter the name on your tax return the same as that is on your current Social Security card.

If you already notified the Social Security Administration to change your name to your married namefiling taxes using your married name is simple, even if you receive a W-2 with your maiden name on it. On the W-2, cross out your maiden name, and write in your married name before you file.
