Since my passport is in my maiden name, will my CR-1 visa, green card and IDs such as state ID, driving license and social security card be under my maiden name?

If so, what can I do to get those changed to my married name after I move to the US? Is that going to be a long process?

Thank you.

Your visa will be in passport name and green card in visa name. You can change anything using your marriage certificate but in all honesty its generally cheaper and easier to change the passport before interview.

Yes, everything will be in your maiden name until you get married and can show your marriage certificate when applying...

Best of luck!
