I learned from reading on the internet that many people had the same experience.
When I went back to my hometown, I was instructed by JAL to purchase a ticket with Hanako YamadaSmith as my name on the ticket and passport. I have read that it is now possible to put a space between "Yamada" and "Smith". However, when returning to the U.S., the name on my green card, Hanako Smith, is different from my name on my green card, so I get an X at the immigration kiosk, which is a hassle. I was even sent to another room. It is not that I cannot enter the country, but it is depressing every time. I would like to know about the experiences of green card holders who have recently returned to their home countries. Is the situation still the same?

23 The insane ones are the ones who only say okay to people who say they are in trouble
24 Why do I have to become a citizen ? Don't you know you can change your GC last name while still a GC?

You just wrote that it was fine from your experience ? Isn't it funny that you call that insane ?.

In the end, I was able to enter the country every time. By the way, there has been no crime at all in the past. Then
I can enter every time, so I don't need to worry about it.

If I have to change my documents to match my name with my green card
I will not be able to enter , that's a problem.

Don't you think that's a good reason to send it back to Japan, even if you have been ?
It's important to understand that the legal name change must take place before you update the green card.

Married name in US and maiden name in Japan are both legal name.
It doesn't say it has to match your passport ?.

Maybe immigration has caught your eye.
If changing your married name to your maiden name in Japan doesn't interfere with your life, just change it.
