I think only the woman has to inform the HMRC about changes if she gets married and plans to use her married name.

Do you need to know if my circumstances change?

Yes. Please write to your nearest DWP office, Social Security office in Northern Ireland orInland Revenue office quoting your National Insurance number. Tell us what change has occurred and when it happened. For example:

If you are a woman you should tell us if you get married or become divorced or widowed.

If you move house, you need to tell us when you move and where you moved to. If you do not tell us when you move, we will not be able to keep your records up to date. This means that we will be unable to contact you if we need to; for example, if the NICs you paid in a tax year are not enough for that year to count for benefit purposes. We would normally write to let you know and to tell you how much you could pay in voluntary NICs to make that year count.

Also, when you are nearing State Pension age, we invite you to claim any basic State Pension you are entitled to. We cannot do this if we do not have your current address.
