Travel - Changed Passport

[pcpro178 0]

My wife and I were married in her home country of the Philippines, and she immigrated here on a CR-1 visa this past January.  Since then, we've been to the Philippine embassy in D.C. and had her name changed.  She's received her new passport along with her old passport--with her visa.  The old passport has two holes punched in it.  My understanding was that we could wait until we apply to have the conditions removed from her visa to get her greencard updated.  However, since that's about around 15 months from now, we're wondering if she can still travel home and return with her documents in their current state.  Does anyone know if we need to get her visa and/or greencard updated, before she can travel home to the Philippines and return to the States?

Does she not have her Green Card?

This is common; she should travel with all documents that verify that both her passport and Green Card are hers. Even CBP addresses this, https://help.cbp.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/1209/~/us-citizens%2Flawful-permanent-residents-name-does-not-match-documents:

LPR's who change their name due to marriage or because of any other circumstance may travel using your LPR Card (US Green Card; I551) in your prior name provided you bring proof of your name progression such as; a marriage certificate, a divorce decree or court documents showing a legal name change.

My wife has her green card with her maiden name on it.
