Hi All,
I have a situation as follows..
I have my maiden name on my passport and H1 approval notice, since I came to US before my marriage. However, after marriage when my husband filed for his I-485, I changed my last name to my husbands last name on the I-485 form ( with marriage certificate as proof).Now, I have my EAD issued with my new last name.
If I want to use my EAD, do I need to change my name on my passport also? (to match that on my EAD)
Do I need to change my name on the original degree certificates and other transcripts? or is it sufficient to have my marriage certificate as proof?
Also, if any one has done a name change on passport it would be helpful if I can get details as to how/where to get it done.
If someone has had a similar situation I would appreciate a response. Also, any opinions/suggesstions with reasons are also appreciated.
Thanks.
