This is not for changing surname after marriage. This is because - there is an extra letter in surname in passport and ultimately in h-4 visa, when compared to all her educational documents.
I would like to change her last name on passport and visa as per her educational documents.
Consulate general of India, NY told me to publish name change details in USA and Indian news papers for changing name on her passport.
My question is - How and where to change surname on H-4 visa? and How tough is this process?
How does this effect - if she applies h1 visa going forward?
Responses are well appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Lokesh.
 
whatever name is on her birth certificate will go on the H-4 corrected visa. You may have to contact the USCIS for the H-4 correction
