so if my lady has a passport already an we get married and make the visa application soon after

will she have to have a new passport in her married name to travel an for the visa application?

or will the old one suffice for both?

My wife had a passport before we got married. Once we got married she applied for new passport with her married name on. We thought it best to do this tosave any hassle later.

We did the same as Pumpkins with my wifes passport. We thought that this may be better for my wife when she first comes to this country and has to go throught passport control.:)

not neccessary to get a new passport she can use her passport now with unmarried name on it and there's no problem at all.
