How to change your name with Allstate
Married or divorced and updating your accounts? Here's how Allstate takes a name change, from its own help page.
Allstate's steps
Sign in to My Account, choose the policy, and select Edit. Or ask your agent.
Have these ready
- A copy of your marriage certificate, divorce decree or court order (most companies ask for one).
- Your updated driver's license or ID, if you have it. Social Security comes first, then the DMV.
- Your account number, and the name the account is in now.
