You went on honeymoon and now you’re home as Mr or Mrs and the formal marriage certificate arrives but your name has NOT been changed.
CHANGING YOUR NAME AFTER MARRIAGE
It's common in many cultures, but it can still be a challenging process.
WHAT DO YOU DO NEXT?
No one in your world, except for those at the wedding, knows about your change of name, or rather, that you intend to change your name.
The bank doesn’t know, your superannuation fund doesn’t know and the ATO certainly does not know.
And your passport and driver’s licence are still in the “old” name.
There is no right or wrong time to change your NAME
We have noticed 3 common triggers to get the process started:
Just after marriage | Planning to start a family | When your child starts school
