We received our interview letter on November 17 from NVC, and it is scheduled for December 8 at Montreal Consulate.
I am registering my interview appointment online, and am required to fill in my name and passport number. A warning at the top of the portal reads - "The information entered below must match the applicant s passport and DS-260 Number application. Any discrepancy will result in delays in the return of the applicant s documents."
When I filled in the DS-260 form, I had a passport in my maiden name. I have since obtained a new passport in my married name. My old passport in my maiden name is no longer valid. I will be bringing both passports to the interview and as I understand, the visa would be issued in my new passport with my new name. The name on my DS-260 would be updated by the CO at the time of my interview.
My question is what name and passport number should I fill in when registering my appointment, the old passport or new one? I don't want to cause any confusion that would lead to delays, so wanted to confirm the with you.
I called
NVC before sending this email and they told me they were unable to advise me as my case is with the consulate and I should reach out to the consulate. I also emailed the consulate, but they are swamped right now, and I am not sure I will receive a response.
Thanks in advance for any advice the community here can provide.
