Hello!
I am a Conditional Green Card holder and I am in India currently, visiting my family. The Green Card is in my married name and my passport is in my maiden name. Now here's my question:
I have to come back to the US asap, what do I do, so that I face no problems with the Immigration Authority here, if I do not change the last name on my passport (I do not wish to change my last name on the passport, bec I may go thru a divorce, so I think it does not make sense to change and then re-change again and again) ?
I can apply for a change in name in the passport due to marriage, here in my country, but as I said that I will be using my madein name once the divorce is final, hence I feel it does not make sense.
In India they have am immigration counter while departure also, unlike the US. I had read on some website(don't recall which one), that I can carry my Marriage Certificate along with the passport and Green Card to the airport and hand that to the Immigration Officer before borading the flight, is that ok, or would there be any problems ?
My ticket is in my maiden name, and I know that there would be no problem with the US Immigration officer, because they told me that all they will see when I come back is my Green Card.
Please advice! I'm quite confused. Its urgent.....
