Hi everyone! Anyone here has any idea if I can travel back to the Philippines using my passport in my maiden name and my vaccination card in my married name. I know there is no problem with using the maiden name passport as long as I bring with me my married certificate and such. However, I have a friend who was recently divorced and she scrambled to get her vaccination card changed to her maiden name to match her new passport (back to her maiden name) few days before her travel because she got info that both documents must match. I think it's ridiculous, but how true is this??? I travelled to the US under K1 visa by the way, and is currently waiting for the removal of conditions adjudication. Thanks and I hope someone can help me clear this up.

Good day, I just have a question about renewing my Philippine passport, is it okay to retain my maiden name even if my (pending/being processed) greencard is in my married name? My expired Phil passport is still in my maiden name. I have been going through separation and will be filing for divorce in the near future. I was just wondering if I can just retain my maiden name in my Phil passport so it won't be a hassle. I have read an article saying: "The Philippine Passport Act does not prohibit married women from continuously using their maiden names in their passports. However, once a married woman has opted to adopt her husband's surname in her passport, she may not revert to her maiden name, except in any of the following instances: death of husband, divorce, annulment or nullity of marriage." --Just asking for any advice or anyone who has experienced this issue. Thank you.
