Travel to Brazil with AP & Passport with maiden name

[tomcougar 0]

Hello,

My wife just received her Advanced Parole documents and we will travel to Brazil to visit her family in November. Her status is pending AOS and her passport is still in her maiden name. It is my understanding that it is taking months (as in many of them) to obtain new passports in Brazil so when she travels, what, in addition to her passport and her AP documents will she need to be granted reentry to the U.S. upon our return?

Will our marriage certificate be required, if so, will we need to carry the original or will a copy suffice?

How long will she be able to travel between Brazil and the U.S. with her passport? Until expiration?

Are there any Brasileiros here who are currently facing a similar situation?

Thanks!

Hi Tom. Bring an original marriage certificate. Her passport is valid until expiration.
