Clarifications with Adjustment of Status as a K1 Visa holder

Hi everyone, I d really appreciate some guidance on the Adjustment of Status (AOS) process. My husband and I got married this past July 2025, and we re now preparing to file Forms I-485 and I-765.
I have a few questions:
1. Can I use my married name and new signature when submitting these forms, or should I stick with my maiden name for now?
2. We have an appointment with the SSA this Thursday. Since my Philippine passport (the only valid ID I currently have) still reflects my maiden name, should I use that name for the SSA records, or is it okay to use my married name?
3. We plan to file the AOS after the SSA appointment is that timing alright?
4. Lastly, my husband lives with his grandmother and mother, but none of the utility bills are under his name. Should we include a separate document or affidavit to confirm that we share residence with his family?
I ve been doing a lot of research, but the more I read, the more questions I seem to have. Thank you all in advance for your help and insights!

Some i864A questions

Hi!

Two questions about the I864A:

1) If my household sponsor, my mother, doesn't know her retirement date, should we just leave out filling in the date? Or should she give an approximate date?

2) If my mother's surname on my birth certificate is now different, will I have to ask my mother for her marriage certificate with my step dad?
For example...her name on my birth certificate says Jennifer Smith, but now she's Jennifer Smith Jones. Or, will this detail not matter to USCIS?

CR1 Case DQ'd. Questions about Taxes.

Hi! Petitioner here.

Context: Originally, when I filed my taxes with a CPA and on my own for the past few years, the total income for each year fall 50% below the i864p poverty guideline. But I showed my tax documents to a different CPA about a week ago. He realized I've been filing wrong all these years. My total income for every year should actually be around $36000 for every year, which is $10,000 above the poverty line! So, the current CPA recommended that I amend all my federal tax returns for the past few years and send the amended forms to the NVC so that I will not need a joint sponsor.

However, I've been DQ'd recently, my original 3 tax forums have already been submitted to the NVC, and the NVC requested that "may" need to find a joint sponsor. I have not received the interview letter yet.

Questions:
1)
Would it be wise to follow the current CPA's advice?
2) Won't the Interviewer be suspect of the amendments? Or will the interviewer accept the amendments?
3) Should I contact NVC regarding my situation? Or is there a likelihood that they'll see my situation as a red flag?
4) Will amending tax forms delay the NVC process by months and months?
5) Even having earned $36000 per year for all three years and its anticipated for 2025, should I still have a joint sponsor?
