Upcoming Travel – Different Last Names on German & U.S. Passports

Hi all,
I m about to become a dual citizen (German-American), and I could use some advice on an upcoming trip to Europe.

  • My German passport has my maiden name.

  • My U.S. passport will have my married name.

I m wondering how best to navigate this when traveling, especially since the names don t match. Specifically:

  1. Which name should I use to book my flight?

  2. How should I handle check-in, airport security, and customs?

  3. When and how do I use each passport correctly?

  4. Should I bring my marriage certificate to connect the names?

I just want to avoid any confusion or issues at the airport or border control. If anyone s had experience with this or has tips, I d really appreciate it!

Thanks in advance!

Hey guys!
I didn t apply for an SSN when I first came to the U.S., and now I have my green card interview in two weeks. The problem is, I don t have any shared liabilities with my husband to prove our marriage we can t open a joint bank account or get a lease in both our names. What can I do except bringing the photos?Is that a big problem?

I-129F Pick up Location Different from Official USCIS Lock Box Address

Hi everyone,

Our I-129F package has arrived in Dallas, TX, and the tracking shows that it s ready for pickup at 401 TOM LANDRY HWY, Dallas, TX 75260-9998.

What s confusing is that this is a different address and zip code than the one we originally sent it to. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it normal for the pickup location to be different from the mailing address?

Sorry if this has been asked before. I m just feeling a bit anxious and want to make sure everything is going smoothly.

Shipping label with USPS

Hello everyone,

Apologies if this is a basic question, but my fianc and I are creating a USPS shipping label online to mail our I-129F visa petition.

We're unsure where to correctly place the "Attn." line. When generating the label, we entered it in the "reference number/note" field, but now it appears small at the bottom rather than formatted as it is on the USCIS website.

Is there a way to enter it in a different field so it displays correctly? I've attached a photo showing how we currently formatted the address.

Interview questions…

Hi everyone! I hope this is under the correct category

my interview is coming up and I would totally do it on the spot I feel very prepared and love my husband so much that I don t have any worries (and vice versa lol) but I have one point that I don t know how to think about. I read that lots of people got asked who proposed and how the proposal happened. Our situation was that we just decided that we wanted to move on and be able to live together so we decided to get married (K1). I m sure we re not the only ones with no real proposal but I worry that they might think that we just did it for other reasons besides wanting to live our life together I hope this makes sense. Would you mind sharing your experience or whatever so I can start relaxing about this possible question? thanks a lot in advance! We will totally answer all questions truly but I just worry that they might think bad of this
