My wife was born in HK and was named lets say Chan Lei Ho Yummy. When she got her green card, her green card only had Chan Lei Ho and did not recognize Yummy as a legal name and dropped it. Fast forward, she obtained her citizenship where she got to state her name Chan Lei Ho AKA Joanna Chan Lei Ho. We eventually got married and she also adopted my surname to Joanna Chan Lei Ho White. The dilemma is that now her HK ID is identified as Chan Lei Ho Yummy and her US Passport is Joanna Chan Lei Ho.
We are also in the process of trying to obtain her travel documents. We were recently informed that since she was born in HK, she wil not be able to obtain a Visa in the US and will need to submit an application for the "travel document" instead.
Will this be a problem with the HK/Chinese government in issuing the travel document if she has two different legal names in HK and US, but we have the proper documentation from the US to support our reason? Please advise. Thank you.
