RE: There is no such thing as a legal name change in the Netherlands
That sounds like something I'd want a second opinion on. Surely it's just as typical in the Netherlands for women's names to change when they marry?
Yes there is that, but that's it.
btw If they're tripping over this now, is it that they made a 'mistake' the first time you got this benefit?
It was Schiphol Passport Office that got it wrong changing it. Then I opened a bank account and applied for a payment and got an address registration. So the local government records were in the changed name. For some reason it only started a problem at the end of the process.
It will not be a problem from now on.
