Change of name to married name in a Filipino passport

[raynaputi]

me im thinking to change my surname before i apply for my FLR so no complications lol

so at that time my passport will be 4 years old and i can have a new visa there ...

If you apply FLR(M) or any other visa in the UK now, you won't have any stamped visa in your passport as they're now giving a BRP card as a proof that you're allowed to live here.

She has to go to the Philippine Embassy in London to get a new passport with her married name. Check this website http://philembassy-uk.org/consular-matters/passport. If you want her visa to be on the new passport, you have to go UKBA and have it restamped using her married name..although you have to pay a fee for that..£102 http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/si...nsfer-form.pdf...or she can just always bring her old passport along with her new passport everytime she needs to show her visa.

Hi Raynaputi

Do you know how long it will take to have the visa re-stamped to one's new passport? I should be in the Philippines to do this, right?

Thanks!

You have to contact a PEO branch and inquire about re-stamping of visa to your new passport. You have to do it in the UK and NOT in the Philippines.
