I got my annulment last year and planning to change name on my passsport, do i need to change my last name also on my H1b approval notice?

Yes. Contact the nearest U.S consulate (VFS help desk). The consular staff will be able to answer your questions, and help you organize the steps you must take in order to make a valid name change in your visa documents.

The first step is getting your passport name changed.
