Removing deceased spouse as primary member and making me the sole member

[aa862]

I've looked at my account and can't edit the AARP members. My husband is listed as primary and me secondary, but he passed away last year and I want to remove his name and have just mine on the account.

  I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your husband! I've taken care of it and the account is now in your name. It will take about 4-6 weeks for the mail to switch over to your name. Take care and let me know if I can help with anything else!

Hello Jodee,

I also lost my husband in February of this year.  Our account has both names on it, and I believe he was primary.  I just renewed my membership for five more years.  Would you please remove my husband's name and make mine primary? Thanks so much.

@Aziza50 Please accept my deepest condolences on the news of your loss, Aziza. I was able to process your request and you can expect the membership mailings to cross over to your name within 4-6 weeks. You may still receive both membership cards due to the recent renewal already being processed. We're always here to help!
