Confirmation of permanent residence card with maiden name

[mia777]

My wife has a document confirming her permanent residence status. It was issued before we got married and so it has her maiden name.

In the next year, we will need to submit a few other applications and her passport and national identity card both have her new surname.

Will there be any issues because of the new name? We have a translated marriage certificate we can supply with the application and her national ID card contains her family name.

As an example, in the position paper Technical note: citizens’ rights, administrative procedures in the UK, point 8 says:

For those who already hold a valid EEA permanent residence document, there will be a simple process to exchange this for a settled status document, subject to ID verification and submission of a photograph, a security check and confirmation of ongoing residence. The previous residence assessment will not be re-done.

Will the "exchange" for settled status be impacted by the name change?

Thanks.

Apologies for bumping the thread, but does anyone have any insight into this?
