HitchSwitch was founded by a newly-wed husband after witnessing his wife go through the messy process of changing her last name to his own. She told him how she wished that there were straightforward, step-by-step instructions to simplify the entire name change process.
HitchSwitch's name change service was created to simplify this process! No one should ever wait in long lines at multiple government offices, only to find out they completed an outdated name change form. This is our secret to eliminating the hassles associated with locating and completing the necessary forms, and piles upon piles of paperwork. HS gives you detailed, step-by-step instructions-- and they mail all the necessarily forms straight to your front door.
There are 3 different packages that HitchSwitch offers. Each of the HS name change packages include all of the same forms but offer different levels of service.
1. Platinum ($99): The most popular option is our platinum package. Our team will ship printed name change applications that have been auto-filled with your basic information, a set of corresponding instructions that will explain how to submit each application, and pre-paid envelopes for any steps that can be submitted through the mail. Platinum clients also receive a dedicated account manager and a free passport photo (which will be redeemed through our sister site "NewPassportPhoto.com").
2. Full-Service Package ($69): Our team will ship printed name change applications that have been auto-filled with your basic information, a set of corresponding instructions that will explain how to submit each application, and pre-paid envelopes for any steps that can be submitted through the mail.
3. Print at Home ($39): You'll have immediate access to name change applications that have been auto-filled with your basic information and a set of corresponding instructions that will explain how to submit each application via an online dashboard.
Each package includes the necessary forms from all 50 states: (1) Social Security, (2) Passport, (3) Driver's License, (4) Vehicle Title & Registration, (5) Voter Registration, (6) IRS, and (7) Official Name Change Notice Forms. In addition to auto-filled forms, HS provides a set of customized instructions (in an easy checklist format) that explain how to complete and submit each application. You can also add in any additional forms that you may need to notify alumni associations, doctor's offices, utility companies, etc.
