Hi Again,
we have that many things on our mind that is something we have overlooked that my wife just got her passport a while ago but it is still in her maiden name so will need changed before we send of the visa application.

Well no law in either the UK or Phil says your wife has to change her name to yours. But when i asked My Mum and other Married Ladies in the UK they all advised it was best for an easier life with regards to paperwork.

If you both do decide to change your Wifes name to yours after the Visa Application i presume you need to get both the passport changed and a new Visa stamp put in with her new name.

Maybe others can advise i think from Memory Petes wife Gina had her Maiden name when she went for her Visa and she was ok.
