if and when you file for divorce and when it is finalized, i would call USCIS and ask them. you'll need to send USCIS a copy of your divorce decree and probably other papers as well.

Personally I knew a few people in that situation. One never even changed her name once she got married, so after the divorce it was never a problem. The other one changed her name, after the divorce, kept the name bc it was too much work for her. I never knew anyone in this excat situation.

as pswa stated, call uscis and inform them and let them take you step by step,

You do not have to change your surname on your work permit. You can change it on your Social Security Card by showing your birth certificate and marriage certificate at the time you apply for the new Social Security Card. The only issue you may have if you do not change your work permit is that it could cause a "no-match" in the E-Verify system if you apply for a job with an employer who is enrolled in E-Verify. Otherwise, there is no requirement to change your name and you can wait until the next time you apply for a work permit to make the change.
