I have a exactly similar situation like other reviewers here. My wife have a H4 visa with maiden name on her passport with Maiden name. The visa is expired and have a approved I797 with her Maiden name. Now she is going to change her maiden name to Married last name in her passport,
>Do she require to change her last name in I797 before she go for visa stamping in India ?
>Should she also change her last name in ITIN which is also with her maiden name currently ?
>Does that create any problems while travelling to India with passport changed to married last name and I797 with Maiden name ?
>***NOTE:She is on her H4 and my H1 is also expired and have a approved I797, but my Passport is about to expire and applying for a new passport and add spouse name to it. Is that something i can do both(applying my new passport and changing her last name to married in her passport) together ?
I guess somebody should have already solved the same situation.. Can anyone please share your experience(please provide detail information), that would be of great help and appreciated.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Ram.
