H1 - Surname post Marriage - Pls Help !

[madhukar002]

Hi,

I have applied for H1 visa & my passport has my wife's Post Marriage surname , same is the case in my marriage certificate.

However , in her passport ( which was issued around 7-8 years before marriage) she has her Maiden name. I want to know shall i apply for her surname change or marriage certificate / ID proof stating the post marriage name would suffice ? She is not working anywhere & would be accompanying me as a family member ( dependent)

I am summarizing again:

Spouse Name on my passport - YYYY X Sharma
Name on marriage certificate - YYYY Agarwal
Name on marriage certificate - YYYY Sharma

Any prompt suggestion/help would be much appreciated as I do not have much time in case i need to apply for a Surname change. Please help.

Thanks
Madhukar
