You can change the locks on your home at any time, but if you're married, it's generally advisable to inform your spouse, especially if you are still living together or if you share ownership of the property. In some jurisdictions, changing locks without notifying your spouse could be considered a form of marital misconduct or lead to legal complications. If you're in the process of separation or divorce, consult a legal professional for guidance on your rights and responsibilities.
Same day. Don't waste time, change the locks.

You tell him by phone, after you've moved out with all your stuff, or moved all his stuff out and changed the locks. Otherwise, you are just going to hear more excuses, and there will be the danger that you'll change your mind.
Depending on where you live the answer may be no. If you are married I believe that the person can come into the home at any time because they are part owner of the home. You should check with n attorney.
Yes, one spouse can change the locks on the bedroom door in a house both own, but it may lead to legal and relational complications. It’s generally advisable for spouses to communicate and agree on such actions, as doing so unilaterally could be viewed as controlling or as an attempt to exclude the other spouse. In some jurisdictions, changing locks without consent could also raise legal issues, especially if it prevents access to shared property. Open dialogue is key to avoiding potential conflicts.
Have someone watch the house - and CHANGE ALL THE LOCKS. If he enters - call 911 immediately.
The tenants as if the locks are ok then why change them.....
You probably should tell them. Most people change their beneficiary when they marry. Or add their spouse to a health policy.
Yes, unless he/she owns the house.
It is legal to change the locks on any home that you own.
If you are living in a property owned by another business or person, no. You have to contact the property owner and have them change the locks (or provide you with the new locks so you can change them). If you are the property owner and there is a person renting you can only change the locks after you've notified the renter about the change in writing. If you have evicted the renter and they refuse to leave/turn in keys or there is no renter then you can change the locks at will.
yes mostly you can change locks on any doors
