Has this ever caused any problems at the border? My fiancee is moving to America next month on her K-1 visa and we will apply for the green card after we get married. I am probably thinking too far ahead, but has anybody ever run into a problem with the green card having her married last name while her passport has her maiden last name?

Thanks

Once she gets her greencard, she can have passport changed. That could be a long procedure - it is best she contacts her consulate for instructions.

Meanwhile, she can use her passport, greencard and marriage certificate.

No problems here. When she flies she has documents as follows:

airplane ticket - maiden name

green card - married name

marriage certificate - to tie the 2 above together

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."
