US Immigration from Philippines

hello all it has been several years since i have been on the site.

if this is in the wrong section, please move to the right one, thank you.

Just recently we filed for the renewal of my wife's green card. Filled out the I-90 and jumped through all the hoops. It was a quick return and approval. The problem is, they put her maiden name and not her married one. When we did her biometrics, we showed her license and our marriage license. They assured us that everything was in order. Well today we got it in the mail and it's in her maiden name and not married. What can we do? Beside for refiling and spending money on another I-90?

Is it typical to wait 6 months for the NVC to schedule spouse visa interview with us embassy in Manila. We have been documentarily approved for 6 months.

Confused. I-130 (online) asks if Petitioner has ever filed for Beneficiary - Yes. Filled a I129F for current spouse (I am petitioner and US Citizen), was granted she entered we married we did NOT adjust status and both moved back overseas. She applied for and was granted a tourist Visa and we've been to the USA several times since. After getting married she applied for and was granted a US SSN. We are still living abroad and I'll work with my international employer to get a job offer from the US division of the company I now work for so once I130 is approved will have information and support from current employer (US Division) to show intent to establish domicile and should be able to get by without a co-sponsor. So to the question... Clearly the answer to the has the beneficiary been in the USA is YES. Can look up I94 information for last visit but don't believe she has a class of entry as she never got a green card. The authorized stay on the most recent I94 would have passed (but she did leave before that date). How do I find detailed instructions for this section of the form ?

Good Afternoon Everyone,

My wife is a Filipino citizen and still uses her maiden name. She used her maiden name when I submitted her I-130. In the Philippines, people usually cannot change their name or even their last name unless they are married. The Philippine government recognized our marriage, so she can now change her last name.

She is asking if it would help her visa application if she changed her last name to mine now that she can. My concern is that changing her name might present an issue since her name would no longer match the documents and applications we already submitted. So, we are not sure how to proceed.

Do you all have any thoughts or recommendations?

Thank you all!

It's a few months yet before I can file my wife's N-400 and at that time we may well be in the Philippines. About how long from the date we file would it be likely for her presents be required for something? Fingerprinting, interview, whatever. I know all cases are different but would a minimum 2, 3, 4 months be likely?

Thanks
