US Immigration from Philippines

Hi Folks,

My wife & I were married yesterday and I am looking for the best way to take care of her name change. Supposedly here in Texas a name change is allowed after marriage but I haven't been able to find any kind of guide on what exactly needs to be done to make all of this happen. I filed for her SS card as suggested here in the forums once she arrived, so I plan to submit a form to update her name for her new SS card. She does not have a Texas ID or driver's license as of yet, so is there any where else that I would need to update her name change? Perhaps with the Philippines embassy so that her passport can be updated? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

My wife applied for removal of conditions in September of 2021. She received the 4 year extension letter in Aprilish. We just returned from a 5 week trip to the Philippines. While going through immigration the kind immigration officer informed us that the expiration date of her GC had already been updated to 10 years in the system and we should be receiving the card soon. I have informed delivery and nothing from USCIS was sent while we were gone and my neighbor picked up our mail--nada. I guess we will see if our "inside info" is correct or not about receiving the 10 year GC soon.

Good day everyone.

I ve been having this problem ever since I got the J1 job offer this May.

I already have a job offer for J1 visa and I m now going to process my visa. The thing is I have a K1 pending application. I had a boyfriend before, we were together for 2 years and we ended things up for good just this March. But our relationship was already not good last year so we would be on and off and every time, I would always tell him to cancel the K1 visa as I didn t want to have a problem with the US embassy.

Side note:
I first started my J1 journey January of 2020 and I met him 2021. He came here to the Philippines and met me April of 2022 and when he came back to the US he applied for a K1 visa. There was no progress in my J1 visa ever since of 2020 so I thought I didn t had the chance to work there in the USA. And just this May of 2023 when it finally had a progress. I had the job interview with a school around May 11th and by May 15th they already offereme the job.

Been telling him to cancel our visa but no response from him. I ve been emailing our visa agency but they keep telling me I don t have power to cancel it as I am not the petitioner.

Is it gonna be a problem when I have my embassy interview?

I badly need answers. I ve been stressing about this a lot these days. Thank you so much everyone.

Hello everyone,

Hope all is well.

My wife background: She came in the states as IR1 Visa and she have been in the states for 2 and half years.

I am an active duty military and got accompanied orders in Italy. Our projected rotation date is on August 2024. She will be eligible to 90 day early filing on August this year. I was wondering if we are able to expedite her naturalization application while we are here in the states before we move to Italy. Can we also file her application of naturalization without waiting on her 90 day early filing? I would like to know if this is falls under 319(b) rules. Appreciate your comments and thank you in advance!

V/r,

Tino
