Hello! 

 

I hope someone could help me. I just want to ask if anybody experienced on changing your PH passport from maiden last name to married last name. My passport will expire on July 2019 but I'm planning to change it to my married name. Would that be fine? Won't it be a red flag when removing my conditional status? 

 

Thank you!

There is no reason not to change or use your married name for any document moving forward.  One has nothing to do with any immigration transaction, now or in the future. Go ahead and use your married name.

Hello! 

 

I hope someone could help me. I just want to ask if anybody experienced on changing your PH passport from maiden last name to married last name. My passport will expire on July 2019 but I'm planning to change it to my married name. Would that be fine? Won't it be a red flag when removing my conditional status? 

 

Thank you!

Why would it be a red flag? You are changing your name on a official document to your married name. It's just another piece of evidence in my book of a bonafide relationship.

Not an issue at all.   No red flag.

 

Did you complete ROM (Report of Marriage)?  You will need that competed to renew your passport in your married name.

 

 

Visa chase and citizenship.. DONE!
