He didn't change his name because he is the male and does not change his name typically. His mother is listed second and her name is listed as her married name (post change/not maiden name)

 

I will just put my father first and, I hope, that will be adequate. It is misleading to ask fro a family name and a maiden name though...

It's a new form with obvious errors.   They should ask for maiden in both places or not at all

Agreed.

I'm guessing what they are potentially looking for is a close family relationship (1st cousin) which marriage to is allowed in some places but generally not allowed in the USA

Filing Form I-485 with Forms I-765 and I-131

If you properly file Form I-485 and pay the required fees, you may file Form I-765 and Form I-131 without paying additional fees. You may file these forms together, or if you choose to file Form I-765 or Form I-131 separately, you must also submit a copy of your I-797C, Notice of Action, receipt as evidence that you filed and paid for Form I-485.
