Question about matching names on marriage certificate name.

[Raccoonize 0]

Hi everyone. I recently got married to my wonderful wife in the Philippines during my trip there last month. We got married through civil court and everything went ok. I am about to file our I-130 and I have a quick question about our marriage contract. It turns out that I left out a part of my name in our marriage contract. My given name written in my U.S. citizenship certificate says Rayner Roue. I filed for a brand new passport 2 months before my trip and turned in my citizenship certificate and I put my name as Rayner without the Roue. The passport was approve with Rayner as my name. I never really used Roue because it made my name sound funny. So will this be a big problem during our visa process? My passport was approved with Roue excluded in my name and I just wanted to hear from people who have legal knowledge of this matter. Thank you so much.

If you want legal knowledge then you must hire a lawyer. We don't give legal advice here

Do you want advice from personal experience?

Good luck

The US Citizenship Certificate is always the basis for your legality. But once the passports and State IDs are printed they usually use your second name as your middle name so it is expected that your passport will have Rayner R. (then your surename). But considering that you submitted your US Citizenship cert and you put Rayner there I think that will be considered. But better visit the passport section or call...
