Confirmation of permanent residence card with maiden name
Posted: Tue Nov 28, 2017 8:13 am
My wife has a document confirming her permanent residence status. It was issued before we got married and so it has her maiden name.
In the next year, we will need to submit a few other applications and her passport and national identity card both have her new surname.
Will there be any issues because of the new name? We have a translated marriage certificate we can supply with the application and her national ID card contains her family name.
As an example, in the position paper Technical note: citizens’ rights, administrative procedures in the UK, point 8 says:
Thanks.

Will the "exchange" for settled status be impacted by the name change?For those who already hold a valid EEA permanent residence document, there will be a simple process to exchange this for a settled status document, subject to ID verification and submission of a photograph, a security check and confirmation of ongoing residence. The previous residence assessment will not be re-done.
Thanks.
