Hi,
I am a US citizen and am filling out the I-751 form for my husband. When it asks for my information, it requests my family name. Do they want my married name or maiden name. I changed my name over 2 years ago and when we had our Adjustment of Status interview i had my new name. I assume it should be my new name since they obviously have my madien name on file. Please let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Carmelisa

Good question. I assumed it wanted my name as it is today (I changed mine after the AOS stuff was filed though). I was debating putting my former name in parens. For example: Johnson (Smith)

I think "family name" means the same thing as "last name". When I filled it out, I put my married name which is my current last name.

thanks! that's what my gut says.

Did everything work out for you in placing your married name as the family name on the 1-751?

At AOS I hadn't changed to my married name yet. Would that make a difference?
