H4 Visa Advice needed... Please help

[SM7691]

I got married in August 31,2006 and now my wife is with me in the US on her H4 visa and my H1b visa which has been extended till May 2010. I have already passed the 2nd stage in the green card process ie I140 under the EB3 category and am waiting for the third stage to happen if it ever happens . The doubts that I have are as follows:

Since my wife is still under her maiden name and has been issued her H4 visa along with my H1b visa, when can i change her last name to my surname ? If so, how would the changing of her passport name affect her current H4 visa stamped on her passport since it shows her maiden name, not new surname and do I need to apply her h4 visa again using her new last name?
Since my green card process was going on before I got married, when should I include my wife's name under the green card papers as I heard it should be done in the I145 stage ? If so, keeping her current maiden name in the process and later on changing to married name, would it be a hassle.
Please advice.

---------------she got H4 visa stamp on passport that has her maiden name , do you mean that her H4 extension is with same name, if it is with same name then what is the problem. if you want to change her last name it would have been better to change the name on passport then get H4 first time. Now if she goes out of US and want to get New H4 visa stamp then she can change her name on passport and then apply for H4 visa stamp
If so, how would the changing of her passport name affect her current H4 visa stamped on her passport since it shows her maiden name, not new surname and do I need to apply her h4 visa again using her new last name?

--------------better file her H4 extension or she get H4 visa stamp with the same name as on passport
Since my green card process was going on before I got married, when should I include my wife's name under the green card papers as I heard it should be done in the I145 stage ?
---------------------Before your I-485 gets approved you can file her I-485 if YOUR PD is current
If so, keeping her current maiden name in the process and later on changing to married name, would it be a hassle.
---------------YES, let her keep the name as on her passport and after getting GC then she can change her last name
Please advice.
