Name change during citizenship petition (Immigration Law)

Wed, 24 Sep 2008 16:28:00 GMT

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
I recently filed for a petition for my name change along with my citizenship and it was granted. I was able to change my name on my SSN and driver's license. I need to change my name in the brokerage accounts and they are asking for legal documentation. I cannot send them a copy of my naturalization certificate as it says copying is prohibited. There is a sheet of paper attached with the naturalization certificate that says I've petitioned for name change and it has been granted. But there is no name of any court on that letter and the letter head says, Department of Homeland Security and on the bottom are signatures of clerk and deputy clerk. I want to know if a copy of that letter is a legal document that I can mail to my banks as proof of legal name change?
