  • Do i need a new passport to show my marital status for US Spouse visa?

    hey everyone,
    i have received my petition approval and waiting for NVC case number.
    i am currently using my maiden passport to visit other countries,this passport shows me as a single woman and doesnt show my relationship to my husband.do i need to make a new passport which mentions my husbands name on it using my marriage certificate? or will this maiden passport supplemented with my marriage certificate will do. NOTE- I DO NOT INTEND TO CHANGE MY SURNAME ANYWAY.THERE ISNT GOING TO BY ANY CHANGE OF NAME EVEN IF I GO FOR A NEW PASSPORT

    Your spousal visa will be issued in your passport name. If your petition paperwork was submitted in your married name, the Embassy interviewer may insist that your passport be changed to reflect the married name in your petition paperwork. Otherwise, if the petition was submitted in your maiden name, it probably won't be an issue.

        By "married name," I was referring to the family name of your husband, that most married women are legally entitled to use after their marriage.

        If your visa paperwork was completed in your maiden name, that is the exception, but it's okay
