Wild attempt to see if anybody has any ideas how to move this forward.
I am married (since 2017) but my wife has kept her maiden name and has never, ever, used my surname on anything (and doesn't intend to)
Shortly after getting married we made a joint CGT PPR election. Unfortunately, HMRC updated my wifes surname unprompted.
My wife and I have made many attempts to get her name sorted out but we are failing miserably. My wife has now had her topup to her LISA refused because her details don't match what HMRC have.
HMRC won't talk to her because her details don't match what they have and they want evidence of her name change (how do you provide evidence of something that has never happened?)
(I didn't know this until today but apparently she cannot get a pension forecast either because her details don't match)
We've been trying to get this put right for over four years now. I've suggested trying our MP as the next thing to do but can anyone else suggest anything else?
She cannot even change the name on her LISA to my name as she has absolutely nothing with my name on it (and I don't think she should be forced into changing the name she uses if she doesn't want to)
