Hey Guys,

 

Finally we made it. My fiancee came to Houston right before Christmas and we got married last Friday :)  when we applied to marriage certificate she used her maiden name (which i thought was the way and also lady did not even mention). Now she will take my last name. she is from Turkey and we applied to Turkish consulate about our marriage and changing the name. she needs to change her passport. Can we apply Greencard with the old passport (which has her maiden name on it) or do we have to wait for the new passport? what do you guys think?

 

Regards,

You can go ahead and file AOS in her married name. Her green card will be in her married name then, no matter if her passport is still in her maiden name. That won't affect it.
