Hi everyone,

My wife (US citizen) want to keep her family name because my family name is hard to spell and it would take alot time and money to make changes.

I'm wondering if the fact that she keep her family name would affect the removal of condition process (actually we are on a pending AOS).

Thank you for your answer :thumbs:

Like said above it's not an issue. I am still legally using my maiden name and we just got approved for the 10 yr card. I will change my name to my husbands family name in the next few months though, I was actually afraid to change it before now incase it confused anyone at USCIS... but I'm really paranoid about stuff like that :wacko:
