Hi all - I am about to start the process to sponsor my husband (outland). However, the name on my Canadian 10-year passport is still my maiden name. Since I have not lived in Canada since before we were married, I never legally changed my name there. However, my legal name in the US is my married name.
I still have 13 months left on my passport before it expires. So at some point during the sponsorship process, I will need to get a new travel document with my married name.
The question is - Do you think this travel document/name change will be an nonissue? Or should I apply for my new passport ASAP and then apply to sponsor him once I have the Canadian passport with my updated name?
Thank you!
