Name change after marriage

[Nitin.Patel]

I have received ITA and have some doubt in filling forms.
What to select in "have you been known by any other name?"
I am asking this question for my wife.
As her last name got changed after marriage.
Before marriage name was
Hersurname Hername Herfathername
After marriage it changed to
Patel (Hername) Nitin
I am the main applicant, I haven't claimed any points for my wife.
Her passport has my name and was issued after our marriage.

Please share your inputs

Your wife should fill the forms with her new name (as on her passport) and the response to that question should be her old name. Attach her change one name documents to the application.

What to attach in that documents? Marriage certificate?

When her name changed, isn’t there any official document for name change? She needs an affidavit or whatever process you have for name change in your country (India I believe).
