[AZ] How can I get a court order to change my maiden name if I’m living outside the U.S?

Hi there, I currently live abroad in Europe. I need to change my name — I recently got married and decided to change my middle name at the same time. I was able to change my social security number, but when I filed to get a new passport I was told I need a court order before they will change my middle name on the passport (not just marriage certificate, even though I did put my new middle name on the marriage certificate). Since I don't live in the US, I read online that I should use the last place I lived, which is in Arizona. Is this all correct?

[AZ] Does a beneficiary deed allow the surviving spouse to avoid probate?

Hello, I am setting up a Beneficiary Deed (aka Transfer on Death Deed) in Arizona. My wife and I are co-owners of the house, so I have listed us both as Owners/Transferors, and our two kids as Beneficiaries. In the event that I die, would the deed transfer to my wife automatically, as co-owner, avoiding probate? Or would I need to set up a separate Beneficiary Deed for her as well?

[AZ] What does Prior Recorded Information mean on a deed?

Arizona Beneficiary Deed: It asks for prior recorded information. Does this refer to recording information for the original vesting deed and/or the existing deed of trust? A beneficiary deed, I believe, has no effect on either. If so, leave blank?
