I changed my name in January. Do I pay taxes in my old name, which I had up until the end of 2007, or in my new name that is current with the SSA? Help!

yup whatever is on record at the SSA MUST be matched by what you file on your tax return, or it will be rejected.
So...I changed my name last year too. I paid the first two quarters' estimated taxes under my former name, and after the name change I paid the rest of the estimated taxes under my new name. Are they going to be able to match that up and realize that I paid taxes under both my former and current names in 2007? How? Is there anything I should do to avoid confusion?
There should be a part on the form where it asks you if your name is the same as your SS card. If it is cool if not use old name. I changed my last name too.
