    The name you want on ITIN and has visa stamp.
    All pages with personal information and visa stamp.

    The name I would like on the ITIN would be the changed one since in future I would be applying the visa extension with the changed name,

    And also the New Passport is the current official Passport of hers, and the visa is stamped with the old passport as per your advise I should be sending copies of the previous passport since the visa is stamped on the previous passport.

    All you need to send is a photocopy of page one of the passport which has the picture and expiration date of the passport.
