Hi all,
Sorry if I have posted this in the wrong place, but a question about my passport, and going to Florida in Sept this year.
I got married a couple of years ago, but have not updated my surname on my passport as when I phoned up to do this (thinking it was quick and easy) I was told it would cost the same as getting a new passport (nearly £80 I think), and my old passport has 6 years left on it, so I didnt want to waste the money. The guy at the passport office said that as long as I booked all trips in my unmarried name, then it would be fine, but I am getting nervous about being able to prove who I am, as my passport does not tally up with anything in my purse, as all cards and driving licence are in my new name.
Do you think I should take my birth certificate or similar, and also do you know if I should apply for ESTA in my old name, or married one?
Cheers,
Sar
