Thank you in advance to everyone who responds to my question, I appreciate your help through this difficult time. After 3 years of marriage me and my husband are divorcing, its an amicable split in which both of us want the best for one another.

I have my permanent 10 year green card in my married name as well as a UK passport in my married name. Our divorce will be finalized late October/early November and I am reverting back to my maiden name. I plan to fly back to England for the holidays in December - as there isn't a lot of time between the divorce being finalized and me updating my documents will I be safe travelling with documents (resident card and passport) that are in my married name, if my name has been changed by the courts back to my maiden name?

I'm sorry if this question has been answered time and time again, my head is all over the place at the moment.

Thank you!
