After the Big Day
Changing Your Name
Make name change notifications. Make a list of agencies to notify if you're changing your name, including credit card issuers, the Social Security Administration, the motor vehicle department, and the U.S. Passport Office. The IRS requires that the name on your accounts matches the name on your Social Security Card. After you've received your new Social Security Card be sure to notify us in writing and include a copy of your new card.
Updating Wills
Create or update your wills and powers of attorney. As life becomes more complicated – as your children are born, as you buy a house or other real estate, as your assets grow – a will can make life a lot simpler for those who survive you.
Check Your Insurance
Review your auto, health, property, disability, personal liability, and life insurance coverage. Update beneficiaries on your policies, your IRAs (individual retirement accounts), and other investments.
