Hi everyone, we're getting stuff together to file RoC (GC expires Nov 2). So we might have some questions from time to time. Thanks for everyone's help in advance. 

We have quite a few pictures of us together at different events/trips, as well as pictures with friends and family from the last couple of years. We're thinking of sending a couple of pictures from most of the events that shows us together as a married couple. We have transferred the pics from phones\emails to a laptop.

 

Plan is to copy & paste a couple of pics each on a Word document (with a brief description) and printing it on a home printer. Is it ok to print in black&white?

Printing from a word document is fine, but I'd print in color.

I printed from google docs 4 to a page, if you don't have a color printer at home see if you can go to an office supply store.

Thanks MrHanky. 

Also guys, we (wife) did a legal name change last month. We got Drivers license, SSN card, credit cards, passport in the new name. Do we need to inform USCIS separately of the name change, or just mention the new name in the i751+cover letter?

I'm pretty sure the form asks for all the "aliases" on the form and cover letter. I don't think there's any provision to inform USCIS of a change of name.

 

Is your timeline updated?

We will list the previous name used, that's not an issue. 

Good to know we don't need to inform USCIS of the change of name, unlike a change of address.
