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.
