    The "name" amendment is merely an additional entry a couple of pages back.
    We then applied for the FLR (for which we are STILL waiting) in her married
    name, as both evidenced by the marriage certificate and her passport.

    Stay lucky... and keep warm !
    hmmm.. so would that work also in my case: green passport expires on june 2010.. wedding will take place in january... fiancee visa expires on 1st of march...

    so would you advice that i renew and update first then apply for flr (which we will apply by post)?

    anyone can also advice me please... i am concerned on the waiting times... wouldn't want to apply for flr and have to wait so long that my passport would expire already... hayyy....

    as simple as this if you like to put your spouse name on your national card then renew your passport but if u like carry on your single name on national ID then no worries to renew rush ur passport, my opinion

    but since you'll passport will expire soon i would suggest renew your passport first b4 apply for FLR,at least nk 2 putok ka isang bala lng kasi rerenewhin mo din soon,i renew mo na din lng pr isa effort lng po

    got you on that... but as mentioned in my post, my visa will expire on march 1 (that's 4 weeks after the marriage will take place)..and the thing is, embassy website said that waiting period for renewal of passport would run for 4 to 6 weeks.. website is mute on whether they are referring to just new passport applications or would also cover renewals...in which case, that might pose as a problem when my fiancee visa would expire soon...

    the question is not on whether i would want my spouse name in the visa or not.. my concern is actually the time frame when each of these processes would take place....
