adding married name to passport

[KiminON 0]

not sure if this has been mentioned (and i'm a search 'tard so i didn't see that it has) but if you wish to add your married name to your CDN passport without having to apply for a new one at the moment (like myself),you have until June 1st to do so. seeing as my passport is valid until 2010 and i don't wish to give them another $90 or whatever, i'm sending mine in today.

i guess the only pain will be that i'll have to travel with a copy of my marriage cert. for a while longer.

cheers.

Is this June 1st date for everyone? I've never heard that! Please let me know.

BTW, Kim. When returning to the U.S. from the above trip, I had the US Immigration Officer in secondary give me a hard time about not having my passport in my married name. But I'm like you... no WAY am I going to go through the entire passport approval process until my current one expires, so I'll just smile and continue to take the abuse until that time comes.

I have not changed my name in my passport. Mine expires the end of this year. I hyphenated my name so it's easy for someone to match my maiden name on my passport to my married name on my other ID.
