My wife entered the US on a K-1 visa. When she obtained her greencard she used her married name but her cambodian passport still listed her maiden name. To reconcile this we sent her passport to the cambodian embassy in washington DC and they added her married name with an embassy stamp to the passport. Now we need to get my wife a new passport. This can only be done in Cambodia. The problem is that when we went to get the new passport we were told that the name on the passport would need to match her Cambodian ID card, which contains her maiden name. Does anyone have any experience with this issue? I'm guessing that if her name on her passport and visa do not match we will have trouble entering the US. Once back in the US I can just get her married name added at the cambodian embassy, but that does not seam to be an option in Cambodia.
