Yes.  Changing your name in your passport does result in a new passport.    Did you complete ROM?

 

You haven't completed biometrics yet for AOS?   You must of filed within the past month or so.

 

Not everyone with AOS gets interviewed.   AOS can take 6-12 months before seeing your green card.

I already have a biometric appointment this friday.. 🙏🏼 That’s why i decided to apply my change in name and at the same time ROM after my biometric appointment..

What if my husband is a filipino and he is now a US citizen by naturalization, do i put a US citizen or a filipino under citizenship in part of the ROM form?

You answered your own question, your husband IS a UNITED STATES citizen.    

 

Did your husband complete dual citizenship?

😂 sorry, i just want to clarify things because i dont’t want to make a mistake in filling up the forms ✌🏼 nope, he did not... and oh how about the witnessess?. When we got married by a judge we bring our family and friends with us in the ceremony but in our marriage certificate there is no witnesses, after the ceremony we asked the judge if anyone in our guests need to sign as our witness but the judge answered no

That is fine, I do understand.   Just clarifying for you that you already know the answer..

 

Many do not have witnesses, leave that part blank of you had none.

Being you are doing ROM and passport renewal a the same time at the consulate-  Leave that section blank for now, you will sign that at the consulate.   If your husband is not going to the consulate with you, have HIS signature notarized... otherwise you will both sign/date that section at the consulate.

 

If you were mailing the ROM form to the consulate you would use the current date at the time of signing the document in front of a notary.

The consulate wants ROM completed before they will renew your passport in your married name ?  DC consulate is like that
