If I filled the edv with my legally married wife's
name as Mrs and on her regular documents
including her passport she still has her maiden
name , do I have to do an affidavit (change of
name to Mrs Xxx and gazetted) or the marriage
certificate solves the Problem of Maiden name and after marriage name. ?
AFAIK and just like Susie said, in most places, the marriage certificate is enough for a woman to effect a change of name.
The only place where I can foresee a problem though is whenever she needs to travel with regards to name on passport not matching the GC. So I would suggest you take care of that now! Get a new passport with the marital name listed on it.
