I need help pls...

Here's the situation:

My social security card (SSC) doesn't have my middle name. When me and my husband applied for a state ID, the lady told us that the SSC need to have a middle name since I am using my middle name. They told us to go to the social security office to change it. We went there, I brought my Philippine passport with me since that's the only identification I have aside from my green card. They looked at both and asked us which name I am going to use. We're both surprise since we didn't know that there's something wrong with it saince they didn't question it at the USCIS, NVC or even the Manila Embassy. My name on my passport is Goff = last name, first name, Santos = middle name and on my GC is Santos-Goff = last name, first name, Jamoragan (which is my middle name when I was single) = middle name. My name on my GC is what they have in the USCIS files since our lawyer did that. I know it is confusing. They told us to change either the PI passport or my GC. And since we are here in the US, we decided to just change the GC.

The problem is my GC will expire this year on November. So, we need to file for Removal of condition. Me and my husband wants to just do it at the same time. The changing of the name and the removal of condition since the fees are high. I called the U.S Immigration Office here in FL and they told me to just change the name in the form and send a marriage certificate at the same time of filing. I think he misunderstood my situation and thought that I was single when they issued me the GC but I am not, so I am confuse.

The question: Can we file it at the same time? Changing the name and removal of condition? We're thinking of saving from the high fees since we all know the economic problems we're all having.

Somebody please help me. We need advice. Thank you so much.

Let me see if I understand.

Passport: Santos Jamoragan Golf

GC: Jamoragan Santos-Goff

What does your marriage license say?

Do I have the names correct on your Passport and your GC?

I would think the name on your marriage license is the name which should be on your GC and SS card and State ID.

Let me know about the names. Thanks.

What name is written on your marriage license?

I think they want you to send the marriage certificate as proof hat you are in fact married...

I changed my name when I was in the middle of the CR1 petition and they just told me to bring my marriage certificate as proof that I was married.. and they changed my name with no problems..
