Your local Linux enthusiasts
I live in Australia, so YMMV, but for me, the things I needed to update were:
- Government/their services and programs, local and federal
- Medical things (insurance, doctors, etc)
- Banks/Financial Institutions (I don’t know how a 401k works, but that probably is included)
- Insurance
- Car registration
- Identity documents
- Wills, if you have one
- Company registrations, if you have one
Beyond that legal obligation, there is no one you have to tell if you don’t feel comfortable. I took the opportunity of legally changing my name to finally come out in the rest of my life (work and uni), but you don’t have to.
Also fun fact I can tell that Medicare (Australias one) definitely doesn’t distinguish between trans and cis women because the week after I changed my name/gender I received a letter telling my I was due to get my cervix checked lol
So how was it?
Couldn’t find one, must be terminal
Well hell
-
Everyone you want to
-
If there’s a legal obligation to inform someone where you are, everyone like that.
End of list.
Short list, perfect!

For changing your sex, I would think you’d need to update your ID and notify your doctor. Driver’s license, identification and passport are all things that you might run into issues if they’re out of order.
The name change probably requires more action. All of the above plus I’d imagine you might come into issues with banking or billing. If you’re a homeowner you might need to update your title, but I’d check with a lawyer
You go, dude!
