Changing your Wife's name to her married on on her Current passport can be an Adious Job. For no good reason, they ask the most ridiculous Questions including Why and where she wants to go. Best ( Which is what we did) is wait until she renews and then Apply in her Married name, Less Hassle and this they seem to understand. New is New, Changing seems to give them a Problem
AS to the BB issue maybe a phome call to the BOI will Claryfy but as long as you have your Marriage Certificate and she has all her ID's a Different name on her Passport should make no Difference. After all you could have Married in the US and she would still have her maiden name on the Passport.
For me Married is Married regardless of a name. but..... a quick Call to the BOI will sort things out I am sure.
