Hi, everyone! I pretty much have my name changed on the majority of my information, ie social security card, credit union, banks, everything work related, etc. Now the question arises, since in this modern age, I rarely write checks, so I have several checks still with my maiden name. My bank said they would cash even if I sign with my married name, since I created a new signature card with them. My question is, when I send in the filing fee for the I130, should I order more checks to send in? I would do a money order, but for tracking purposes, I would rather use a check. Would it make a difference to USCIS? I am thinking it would just slow us down if I have to wait and order them.

He is home!!!

It wont make a difference, but yes use a check, the ones you have now, wont hurt or slow anything down. You can track when its cashed and also get your receipt number off the back of it .

I would change my name on the checks, one less thing to deal with later.

Truly happy!!!

New life, new adventures, and a new attitude.
