Hey :)

So sorry if this has been asked but I cannot find it anywhere. Got my biometrics appointment letter in the mail.. all good. However, they want me to bring photo ID. I have plenty of photo ID in my maiden name, however my AOS and EAD applications are in my new married name. I will bring my photo ID plus a marriage certificate plus my Social Security card with my new name on it.. I am just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and if it will be ok. I don't have a state ID coz apprently in Texas you cannot get that until you have your EAD.. same with drivers license!

I live an hour away and since I am not allowed to drive I have to put other people out to get me there so I am just hoping it wont be a wasted trip!

Thanks!

When I went for my biometrics appointment, I brought only my passport (with my maiden name) and the appointment letter as it was suggested in the letter. But then, I was asked to see something to prove that I was allowed to use my husband's last name, i.e. marriage certificate, since on the letter it was my married name. So I told the officer that I had no more valid ID with my married name, except a credit card. She then asked her boss and said ok.

So I think you'll be ok with your photo ID, plus marriage cert, plus the appointment letter. :idea::thumbs:

I see that you have no replies yet. I just got my bio appt letter too, and just my two cents worth, i think the marriage cert is "THE" document you will need to prove you have taken on yr husband's surname. I changed my name at the banks etc. with the marriage cert. It was the only doc they ever needed. Well, see what other's in VJ say too. :)
