My PR card and passport are in my married name. But due to divorce my ID has my maiden name (I didn't renewed my passport after divorce). Now, I am in my hometown and want to come to Canada (since I have to renew my PR card). I am thinking to buy a plane ticket that matches with my passport and PR card. Will there be a problem during security checks? I will appreciate any advice.

Thank you

travelling internationally the name on the ticket should match the name on the passport. And assuming your PR card is still valid and that matches your passport you should be good. Probably a good idea though at some to realign everything. Others can comment if i got anything wrong.
