How Do I Change My Name or Marital Status?

In Profile, in Personal > About Me, you might see your current name and marital status (for example, Married or Common Law). This information is often saved in your Dayforce profile during your onboarding process.

If you need to update your name, or save a marital change such as a new marriage or divorce, submit a Name and Marital Status form. You can find the form in Profile, in the Forms tab.

Any changes to your name and marital status might need approval from people in your organization, so the changes might not take effect immediately.

To complete the form:

1. Go to Profile, then click the Forms tab.
2. Click the Name and Marital Status form. The form might be titled differently depending on your country.
3. Enter the necessary changes to your name and marital status. Fields marked with an asterisk are required. For example, if you add a new status in the Marital Status drop-down list, you must also select a start date for the status in the Start Date field.
4. Click Upload Files to upload supporting documents that verify your name or marital change, such as an image of your marriage certificate.
5. Click Submit.
