Changing Details.
My wife and I got married on November 26th 2015. She left for a planned trip to her country of origin on December 5th 2016. When we booked her flight we used her UK passport details in her previous husbands (deceased) name.
After she returns on Saturday we need to start sorting out all her registered details with different agencies. Please tell me if I have left anything out.
New passport - what happens to any remaining validity on her current passport?
Tell the council that I am no longer entitled to a single persons discount.
Get the electoral register updated.
Regarding her car - tell the DVLA that she has changed name and address, get the car registered at the new address and tell the insurance company. How does she stand driving the vehicle immediately on her return after 3 months?
The only other things I can think of is telling HMRC and her bank and credit card provider.

well congrats on getting married !
I hope you went somewhere nice
remeber that this is a matter of choice and not law
you have done the law bit by filling out the right forms and swearing/affirming oaths in front of the correct official ( registrar )
Bank details dont HAVE to be changed but take in the MC and passports if you do - and you also have to work out what you are gonna do it she gets cheques in her old name ( sign a doc saying bank them anyway - it was like getting blood out of a stone )
Oh make sure national insurance know both names
clearly they will have done this before
and DWP - there is now a tell us once procedure which works quite well
The big thing is as far as I can see is when asked Mrs X she DOESN'T say no: Mrs Y - mrs X is over there .... now that WOULD be troublesome
Oh I must tell you - seventy years ago my grandfather remarried and my mothers stepmother took therefore my mothers maiden name
whenever they met cat fur would fly ....
