Adding more context: Have already told the program coordinator that I will be changing my name and will be submitting name change court order. So I will graduate with new name. In the meantime started the FCVS process with old name/current name, submitted all docs bearing the same name. I have not yet changed the driver's license, SS card or passport, will be doing that shortly. I guess what I'm wondering is when I start the TX medical license application on their official website, should I start with the new name so when they verify with FCVS, they would be satisfied seeing that I've submitted the proof of name change to FCVS.

Dear PC/PD/Fellow MDs,
I would appreciate any input on the name change matter. I've the court order in hand and started the FCS process with the old name (same name as on all med. school documents, birth certificate etc. As part of the FCVS process, it instructs the applicant to send in the notarized Certificate of Identification which I did with old name. I uploaded the name change court order and provided the variation in name in Name section of FCVS. I check with the FCVS customer service and that's what they told me to do.
Now moving on to UA (Universal Application) from FSMB, it's asking again for Certificate of Identification just like FCVS but I'm thinking when I apply for Texas license on their official website, they are supposed to pull in information from UA and FCVS, I would like to have the new name on my license or said another way I would like to be licensed as the New Name.
Has anyone gone through similar situation and can share your thoughts, I would be grateful.
Sorry if this sounds confusing, happy to clarify. Thank you so much for your help!
