Hey guys

I'm planning to do the ECA for my spouse in order to get aditional points. Is there a problem to do that with a certificate that shows only her maiden name?

When we got married, she added a new last name.

Thanks in advance.

Should be ok. You can use the one on her certificates.

You will not have a problem as i found in my case. anyway for ITA submission you will provide proof for name change ( marriage certificate, legal name change doc .. )
