My wife wants to apply for a job. We are not sure of which surname should be used in the application, father's surname or husband's surname.Our marriage is not registered. It was a traditional arranged marriage. All her documents are on her full name that includes her father's surname. We are not in the mood of registering our marriage. What is the best way of entering her full name in the application. If she uses her full name with my surname, will there be any objections while verifying her certificates? or is it accepted simply as it is a common practice to change surname after marriage. We have no feelings of changing or not changing surmanes. Please advice.

If ur not in mood to register ur marriage then you end up using your wife's maiden surname.

If she uses her full name with your surname then she can submit an affidavit declaring her name change after marriage.

If you do not mind if she uses her previous surname then why to get it changed now?
