Hi All,

I completed my landing on Dec. My wife's passport (Indian) was valid till April'15, so she renewed her passport on Jan'15, she updated her surname. Her new passport is now having my surname. We need to update her name on PR card but she already has gone back to India. While she will be coming back she will have her old passport with her maiden surname, new passport with my surname, PR card with maiden surname and marriage certificate.

Any idea if its going to create any issue during travel as her latest passport and PR card having different surname?

thanks
sr

Just to update, we did not have any issue, only thing she had to explain to the airlines why names are different. They wanted to see the old passport. We have updated the name in new PR card now.
