Wife Surname is different in my & her passport.?

In my passport, surname of my wife mentioned is of before marriage. Now She has also got a passport having "after marriage surname" & she has started using the new surname everywhere else too.
Can it be a problem (in getting dependent) visa that my passport mention a different (old) surname of her?

Yes it could be a problem to explain this to the consulate. Better get it changed from the passport office.

get it corrected from passport office, where your passport office was issued,immediately.

It is due to foolishness by husband. Husband's passport is after marriage. Why husband mentioned wrong / old name of wife in his application?
This can be corrected. This is a case of change of name of wife. She will have to make affidavit and place advt. min 2 newspapers.

the correct last name must be on her passport , both of your passports must match exactly , yes it will cause you problems in receiving a visa trough if both passports are not alike.

Rather than encountering last minute problems / anxieties you are best advised to act immediately both of you to file the necessary affidavits and also seek gazette notifications. However it is best to post a question seeking clarification from the the US Consulate (??) on their official web site and act according to their advice . No need to hesitate. As long as your efforts are there on paper and actions are transparent nothing to fear. They will be found to your advantage.
