It is state by state. In California, you do not need to have had top surgery or be on T in order to get your gender/sex markers changed.
Many states are moving in that direction. It is actually an amazing time here in the U.S. I filled out three (3) gender marker change forms for new driver licenses this week (all FTM). All 3 of the people have not had top surgery. Two still have a female name. One of them is pre-T. All that is required now in my state is the therapist/psychiatrist fill out a form stating that the person "identifies as male/female and that I see no reason why this would change in the foreseeable future".
Like I said, amazing stuff happening for trans people right now. Less government hoops and hurdles here in the U.S.
