Hello,

I have a question regarding the last name in the passport. I'm in the process of AOS to obtain the Green Card and we filled all the AOS forms with my new married name. From what I red, the Green Card will show my new married name.

I emailed the Italian consulate to ask if they could change my name in my passport in order to match with the Green Card when I will have it, and they said that Italian women keep their maiden name after marriage for all official Italian documents. So they don't change the name in the passport. They also said I will have to travel with my marriage certificate together with my passport.

Is anyone familiar with that? Have you ever traveled with a Green Card and passport that don't show the same name?

Thank you in advance and Merry Christmas!
