I received my greencard today in the mail!!! Now we can go home and visit my mom who is very ill. I have been reading that people should take their marriage certificates with them if they are flying. Is this right

? Even if you have a greencard you still need it? And should I book the airline ticket in my maiden name? Geesh, when does it all get more simple to do things? lol

Congratulations ! :dance:

Do you have time to ammend your passport to your married name? If not, take the marriage certificate with you as well as everything else. The tickets must match the passport name, so be sure to book them with the same name as your passport.

I wish your mum the best.

Best Wishes,

Rose
